Olive Anderson (1927-2016) was professor of history at Westfield College, University of London.[1]
Life
Anderson has been noted for her innovative approach to the writing of military history, which concentrated on the political, administrative, and cultural aspects of conflicts rather than strategy or tactics.[2] In 2017, she featured in a conference, London's Women Historians, held at the Institute of Historical Research.[3]
