History: A Very Short Introduction
John H. Arnold
There are many stories we can tell about the past, and we are not,
perhaps, as free as we might imagine in our choice of which stories to
tell, or where those stories end. John Arnold's Very Short Introduction
is a stimulating essay about how we study and understand history. The
book begins by inviting us to think about various questions provoked by
our investigation of history, and explores the ways these questions have
been answered in the past. Concepts such as causation, interpretation,
and periodization, are introduced by means of concrete examples of how
historians work, giving the reader a sense of the excitement of
discovering not only the past, but also ourselves.
