Description



Book Synopsis



"If one laughs when David Hackett Fischer sits down to play, one will stay to cheer. His book must be read three times: the first in anger, the srcond in laughter, the third in respect....The wisdom is expressed with a certin ruthlessness. Scarcly a major historian escapes unscathed. Ten thousand members of the AmericanHistorical Association will rush to the index and breathe a little easier to find their names absent.



Review Quotes




"An important book...in terms of helping an entire generation of scholars who profess to have lost confidence in being historians." - New York Times Book Review

"Historians are in [Fischer's] debt for reaffirming the functional values of their profession. And readers are in his debt for an extremely entertaining book." - New York Times
