Public History: Theory and Practice

Thomas Cauvin Discussion

Dear all,

I want to share with you the recent publication of my new book. Public History: A Textbook of Practice serves as an introduction to the field. Every chapter is a constant discussion between theory and practice. You can find out more about topics, reviews, and contents here. Especially, it deals a lot with the theory of the uses of the past and the new role for historians. I am also about to start regular blog post on the theory and practice of the different fields of Public History, such as Oral History, Historic Preservation, Digital History, so any feedback is welcome. You can contact me at cauvin@louisiana.edu or visit my personal website.
