"The Historian's Craft provides a highly personal, lucid and incisive discussion of the nature of history, its purpose and its methods. It takes the attractive and accessible form of the reflections of a great historian on the practice of his work. For students of history, at a variety of levels, it offers a useful introduction to the subject [...] This book makes an ideal text for courses on historical methods. The preface by Peter Burke places the work in its full context, exploring the career and writing of Marc Bloch and discussion many of the questions raised by The Historian's Craft."--Page 4 of cover.
