David Hackett FischerHistorians' Fallacie: Toward a Logic of Historical Thought

Every aspiring historian should read this book.

Besides being an interesting and engaging critique of how historians approach their work, this book is suprisingly witty.

While delivery was delayed, I was expecting no less due to COVID. But the book itself ticks all the boxes

A super book outlining how logical fallicies play themselves out in narrative.... He's an analytical historian who considers that some value can be taken from studying the past although it's not easy; To understand causality he suggests how questions are better as opposed to why questions. Why questions by their nature are more trancendental unanswerable and abstract!

The book is very good.
