Description

Historians traditionally claim to be myth-breakers, but national history since the nineteenth century shows quite a record in myth-making.

This exciting new volume compares how national historians in Europe have handled the opposing pulls of fact and fiction and shows which narrative strategies have contributed to the success of national histories.
