Adrian Tinniswood
The Second Museum of Bristol Lecture: the Historian and the City
15 May 08
City Museum and Art Gallery, Bristol

Historian Adrian Tinniswood's most recent book is The Verneys, which has received widespread critical acclaim. As regional chair of the Heritage Lottery Fund he has been involved in many Bristol heritage projects, and now, in the lead-up to the opening of the Museum of Bristol in 2010, Adrian reflects on his own work as a historian, looks at ways in which historians have defined the city in the past, and outlines the vital role that history has in shaping Bristol's future.
