yeh i agree , do you reckon direct quotation from historians is necessary or would just summarising their view be enough?

hmm... having the odd quote at hand is good, but the examiners won't mind if you just summarise their opinion and stick a name to it. - Quotes are always good, and i'm trying to sort out a few in my mind, but mostly contemporary ones rather than historians.

im doing this exam as well, i need to do well on it coz i ****ed up one of the european history exam :redface:

it shouldnt be too bad though, when ive dont practice past exam questions i usually get high C's or B's

the exam paper title is Appeasement and Public opinion, so that could be why the exam question is always on public opinon :ninja:
