Editor-in-chief

Chris St Cartmail
I am passionate about history and for the last 15 years have been researching and writing about events and human affairs spanning the Middle Ages to the late 20th century. 

Notwithstanding Aldous Huxley’s claim, ‘that men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history’, I remain devoted to helping others discover that the past is our key to understanding people and societies.  My day job is writing insights on mergers and acquisitions and businesses for sale at the Business Sale Report.

Writers

Dominic Pollard
I am a history graduate with specialist knowledge of early modern Europe, from the English Civil War through to the French Revolution.

My passion for history stems from the ability to join up the dots between the past and the modern day, enabling us to understand how historical people and events shaped the world as we know it. History Learning brings this life with its huge, far-reaching catalogue of information about world history.

Alice Mulhearn
I am a history graduate and journalist who loves nothing more than writing about the past - especially the grisly bits!

At university I studied medieval history with a special focus on food during the Early Middle Ages, but when I graduated in 2014 I was hungry for more. Now, as a writer for History Learning I get to explore the history of the world every day.

Ben Grobler
I am a second year history student at the University of Auckland and have been interested in history for as long as I could remember. I am always driven by a need to understand the world and those around me. To me if you want to understand the nature of humanity then you need to study the raw data that is presented to you. That is what history is for me. Information on how humans interact with each other on the small and big scale.

As for sources, I try to stick to first-hand accounts and primary sources as much as possible - which can be challenging when dealing with ancient history.
