Críticas:

"I was given HE Marshall's Our Island Story at Christmas 1936 and I've still got that copy. It was a direct inspiration for me in my career as a historian." Lady Antonia Fraser "...the reason that parents will go to such lengths to try to track down copies of Our Island Story is because of the sheer quality of the writing. Telling a story from history might be old-fashioned, but it stimulates a child's imagination like nothing else." Andrew Roberts, The Sunday Times, 2005 "Our Island Story is a marvellous antidote to the fractured, incoherent history most primary school childen are taught today. It chimes with the Prince of Wales's campaign to restore narrative and chronology to history teaching and has been endorsed by Antonia Fraser, one of our leading historians, who says the book has earned her lifelong gratitude." John Clare, Education Editor, The Daily Telegraph "H E Marshall's Our Island Story, first published in 1905, must rank as one of the most influential works of history of the 20th century." Sean Lang, Times Educational Supplement
