Description
"History has become a matter of public controversy as Americans clash over such things as museum presentations, the flying of the Confederate flag, and reparations for slavery. So whose history is being written? Who owns it? Eric Foner answers these and other questions about the historian's relationship to the world in this provocative, even controversial, study of the reasons we care about history--or should."--Page 4 of cover.
Description
Presents a series of nine previously published essays by the noted historian in which he reflects on how history is used and understood, the cultural and historical determinants of what a historian chooses to study, and other topics.
