"It is hard to think of three historians better equipped to deal with threats to the discipline of history . . . [which] is being fundamentallychallenged in new ways." —Gordon S. Wood, The New Republic

"A wise and moderate book. The authors, all distinguished historians . . . ,speak with confidence about the value of both the historian's traditional craftand modern criticism of it. Their sane and readable discussion should give hopeto [those] who . . . believe in the possibility—even the pleasure—of writing history." —Caroline Walker Bynum

"A fascinating historiographical essay. . . . An unusually lucid and inclusiveexplication of what it ultimately at stake in the culture wars over the nature,goals, and efficacy of history as a discipline." —Booklist

"A confident, breezy account of the historical profession's encounters withpost-modernism and multiculturalism." —David A. Hollinger, New York Times Book Review
