Scottish Historical Research
making history work for you
From wee crofts to mighty corporations, we research any aspect of Scottish history for all types of clients including writers, media companies, local authorities and producers of corporate literature. What's more, we specialise in interpreting dry facts, transforming them into inspiring, enjoyable reading for exhibitions, historic houses and monuments, schools, churches, museums, hotels and even pubs. Our flexible approach means that we can tackle any challenge.
Interpretation is about telling stories. History in the Making is the antidote to baffling, boring exhibitions and guidebooks; our stories are created with clarity, relevance and imagination for people to absorb and enjoy.
Major anniversary coming up? Why not celebrate it with a history of your company or community, or the biography of your ancestor or the founder of your firm. Whatever the situation, we can work with you to help you work out the story you want to tell - and how to tell it.
Equally, if you prefer, we can help you to write it yourself, edit it or even ghost your thoughts into polished prose. You'll benefit from our wealth of experience in the production process and dealing with publishers.
We research, write and produce:
- Background to political/ environmental/legal issues
- Briefing papers
- Company histories
- Exhibition panels
- Guidebooks for museums, monuments, attractions and exhibitions
- Fact sheets
- House histories
- Pamphlets
- Parish histories
- Pub Quizes
- Web pages
