The History of Historical Writing in America is a comprehensive book written by J. Franklin Jameson that explores the evolution of historical writing in America. The book covers the period from the early colonial times to the early 20th century, and it examines the various styles, methods, and themes that have shaped the discipline of history in America.Jameson's book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a specific period in American history. The author begins by discussing the earliest forms of historical writing in America, which were largely focused on recording the experiences of the early settlers and their interactions with the indigenous peoples of the continent.As the book progresses, Jameson explores the emergence of new styles of historical writing, including the rise of scientific history and the development of social history. He also examines the impact of major historical events, such as the Civil War and World War I, on the discipline of history in America.Throughout the book, Jameson provides detailed analyses of the works of prominent American historians, including William H. Prescott, George Bancroft, and Francis Parkman. He also discusses the contributions of lesser-known historians and the role of historical societies and institutions in shaping the discipline of history in America.Overall, The History of Historical Writing in America is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American historiography. Jameson's thorough research and insightful analysis make this book a must-read for historians, students, and anyone interested in the evolution of historical writing in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
