Rezensionen

'... an important contribution to our understanding of how historical writing works, and how it is worked.' - English Historical Review

"Finney's book, then, is a triumph of the application of some aspects of postmodern theory to the practical business of writing history (...) it is also a major contribution to the modern schools of memory and identity studies." - Reviews in History
