This book tackles the public, non-academic interpretation of history from a global perspective instead of the more traditional Western-dominated model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e“Deftly describes the way public history is distorted, manipulated, and used by governments and groups, but...never falls back on a nihilistic relativism.... Historians, college students, and all those interested in the uses of history will find this frequently witty book to be fascinating.” —\u003ci\u003eHistory\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9780340888933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40594876825806,"sku":"9780340888933","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_a6e46e15-a204-4976-a792-891d2ab904ee.jpg?v=1637820424","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9780340888933","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
