Book by Corder, Jim W.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Jim W. Corder (1929-1998) was an English professor at Texas Christian University. He is also the author of numerous books including "Yonder: Life on the Far Side of Change" (Georgia), "Chronicle of a Small Town, " and "Lost in West Texas." Texas Christian University created the Corder Fellowship in his honor.
It is a profoundly moving meditation on the historian’s task, limpidly written and rife with insights about everything from the confusion of battle to the viewpoints of the other side.
(Boston Globe)A brilliant piece of writing . . . Exhibiting the best of Corder’s style and grace in language, the book fl ows like honey from sentence to paragraph to chapter, drawing the reader in.
(Dallas Morning News)In this intriguing detective story, Corder translates weighty philosophical matters into concrete examples and frames the debate in comprehensible terms. History should always be such fun.
