Title: Historical study of history
Review: Richard Evans' book analyzes history as a discipline and tackles subjects as objectivity, causation, history vs science, sources and discourses. I was assigned this book for a graduate course on historiography. Evans presents his thesis and supports his arguments well. In Defense of History is a good companion to David Fischer's Historians' Fallacies, Davidson and Lytle's After the Fact and Mark Gilderhus' History and Historians.
