Author: J. H. Plumb
Publisher: Pelican (Penguin Books), 1973
Condition: Softcover, markings on first page, slight annotations in pencil, yellowed pages, interior generally clean
In this book, J.H. Plumb investigates the way that humankind has, since the beginning of recorded time, moulded the past to give sanction to their institutions of government, their social structure and morality. The past has also been called upon to explain the nature of our destiny in order both to strengthen the objectives of society and to reconcile us to our lot. J.H. Plumb questions this sanction of the past, the force that it has on our sense of destiny and its relevance to our own times.
