Quote from review in Scottish Historical Review: "The Tenementals are asking us to think, really think, about the practice of history in creative terms and what would change if historians went into the studio to produce history instead of what we usually do. In doing so, they are making an important contribution to the ongoing process of widening the scope of what ‘counts’ as history as well as to the practice of co-creating history in our communities.'
