This book, originally published in 1977, is a survey of European
historiography from its origins in the historians of Greece and
Rome, through the annalists and chroniclers of the middle ages, to
the historians of the late eighteenth century. The author
concentrates on those writers whose works fit into a specific
category of writing, or who have inlfuence the course of later
historical writing, though he does deal with some of the more
specialist forms of medieval historiography such as the crusading
writers, and chivalrous historians like Froissart. He maintains
that 'modern' history did not develop until the 18th Century.
