Stories from Small MuseumsAuthor(s): Fiona Candlin, Toby Butler, Jake Watts\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Manchester University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Manchester University Press\nISBN-13: 9781526166869, 978-1526166869\nSynopsis\nDuring the late twentieth century, the number of museums in the UK dramatically increased. Typically small and independent, the new museums concentrated on local history, war and transport. This book asks who founded them, how and why.\n\nIn order to find out more, Fiona Candlin, a professor in museology, and Toby Butler, an expert oral historian, travelled around the UK to meet the individuals, families, community groups and special interest societies who established the museums. The rich oral histories they collected provide a new account of recent museum history one that weaves together personal experience and social change while putting ordinary people at the heart of cultural production.\n\nCombining academic rigour with a lively writing style.
