Description
Heritage Management, Interpretation, Identity by Peter Howard offers a comprehensive approach to understanding this increasingly important field. As a combined study of conservation, management and interpretation, it explores how heritage is valued, protected and presented at various levels, from local to international. The book examines the process of selecting heritage sites and objects, as well as the practical management of these processes. It covers a range of topics, including the nature trail, cathedrals, family albums and national parks, highlighting the complexities and nuances of heritage management. By considering the diverse stakeholders involved in heritage, including academics, governments, owners, school-children and tourists, this textbook provides a valuable resource for students approaching heritage as a field of study.
