Abstract
One historian once wrote that the best historians need stronger boots and not a big library,
a testament to the fact that the best historians need to be on the ground and do research
in order to find information. In many countries, the History teacher needs a strong heart,
for they always have to straddle the line between teaching realistic history and kowtowing
to the dictates of the syllabus, which in some cases has been bastardised by the political
elite.
