Value of the Study of History Lecture Explores Historians
Ven Archdeacon Davies lectures on history as story and science. He outlines old fashioned views of history as tales of dates and places and contrasts them with the modern scientific approach stressing sources. He argues history is a practical guide, a training in citizenship, and a study of human society driven by evidence and context.
