Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Clean bright copy. Clean. The Portable Stanford, TPB, spine sunned, edge toning . Written by the eminent expert in French history this is a collection of essays, b/w photos, a readers guide, an epilogue, and an 'about the author' section. Originally written for short articles, lectures etc., the author takes on the Social Historians of his day and argues the place of the individual in history, for better or worse, often not the outstanding person, but the obscure. It seems to have a thesis that discrete events and individual actions are not merely superficial happenings, but have a role in history to shape and mold the future, the development of the normal standards of culture. 142 pp Ships within two days Quantity Available: 1.
