In the 1960s historians on both sides of the Atlantic began to
challenge the assumptions of their colleagues and push for an
understanding of history "from below." In this collection,
Staughton Lynd, himself one of the pioneers of this approach,
laments the passing of fellow luminaries David Montgomery, E.P.
Thompson, Alfred Young, and Howard Zinn, and makes the case that
contemporary academics and activists alike should take more
seriously the stories and perspectives of Native Americans, slaves,
rank-and-file workers, and other still-too-frequently marginalized
voices.
Staughton Lynd is an American conscientious objector, Quaker,
peace activist and civil rights activist, tax resister, historian,
professor, author, and lawyer.
