How History is Made: Methods of Transnational History (Iwanami Gendai Zensho)

What do historians think and what work do they do when creating historical accounts? This leading British historian, who has led the field of early modern Western history, particularly in Spain, reflects on the process of his own research, which began during his apprenticeship and has expanded into various fields, while outlining the prospects for the research history of each field. This is a methodological examination of understanding the past, as only a scholar of great scholarship can.
