Publisher Synopsis
"Important and timely, this fascinating collection of tales from a multitude of repositories and record offices removes all sorts of archives from the historian's grasp (though there are many extraordinary and brave historians writing here) and restores their meaning to politics and society, to the telling of individual and collective pasts."-Carolyn Steedman, author of Dust: The Archive and Cultural History "Archive Stories is path-breaking in its subject matter, methodology, and up-to-date reflection on the status of historical knowledge. It is hard to see how anyone can avoid using this important anthology in methodology and historiography courses."-Bonnie G. Smith, author of The Gender of History: Men, Women, and Historical Practice Read more...
