History and Historians

by Mark T. Gilderhus

“History and Historians” is a book about how we reconstruct the past—through evidence, interpretation, and the human urge to make meaning. This playlist moves between scholarly tension and reflective calm, echoing the book’s historiographical arguments, debates, and shifting interpretations of “what really happened.”
