Book Reviews of Navigating World History: Historians Create a Global Past

Book Review: World Historiography
Summary: 5 Stars

World History is a daunting field... perhaps no single discipline asks so much of its practitioners and yet provides them with so little training or such vague methodology. With _Navigating World History_ Pat Manning helps to amend this failing by providing a concise, engaging, and erudite history of the field and also an analysis of its various paradigms, pitfalls and potentials.

Researchers, teachers and students who are new to the field will find Manning's work an invaluable guide to help locate their own efforts within the often overwhelming context that is World History.

Truly and outstanding work. A doff of the cyber-cap to Prof. Manning!
