Place Names of Wisconsin

What History Tells presents an impressive collection of critical papers from the September 2001 conference An Historian's Legacy: George L. Mosse and Recent Research on Fascism, Society, and Culture. This book examines Mosse's historiographical legacy, first within the context of his own life and the internal development of his work and, second by tracing the many ways Mosse influenced the subsequent study of contemporary history, European cultural history, and modern Jewish history. The contributors include the distinguished scholars Walter Laqueur, David Sabcan, Johann Sommerville, Emilio Gentile, Roger Griffin, Saul Friedlander, Jay Winter, Rudy Koshar, Robert Nye, Janna Bourke, Shulamit Volkov, and Steven E. Aschheim.
