Historians' fallacies : toward a logic of historical thought

[This] book must be read three times: the first in anger, the second in laughter, the third in respect ... The wisdom is expressed with a certin ruthlessness. Scarcly a major historian escapes unscathed ... This is an important book, perhaps the most import to have appeared in recent years, in terms of helping an entire generation of scholars who profess to have lost confidence in being historians. A dose of the book is salutary, and its ultimate message is one of optimism, for it demonstrates that historians do have honest, important, and even pleasurable, tasks to do.-Back cover
