About Rear Vision
Rear Vision is an ABC Radio National Program presented by Annabelle Quince and Keri Phillips. History is about the most interesting subject anybody can read. It's us and our ancestors, and if you don't know where you were, you don't know where you are, and you certainly have no idea where you're going!Gore Vidal In today's information age we know when things happen almost immediately but so often we don't know or understand why. News and current affairs are instantaneous but more often than not presented in a historical vacuum.
