Why The American Historical Association Needs Thorough Reorganization (1915)

""Why The American Historical Association Needs Thorough Reorganization"" is a book written by Frederic Bancroft in 1915. The book is a critique of the American Historical Association (AHA) and its structure, arguing that it needs to be reorganized in order to better serve its purpose. Bancroft argues that the AHA has become too focused on the interests of its members and has lost sight of its primary goal, which is to promote the study of history in the United States. The book outlines specific changes that Bancroft believes should be made to the AHA, including a more democratic structure, greater emphasis on research and scholarship, and a more inclusive approach to the study of history. Overall, ""Why The American Historical Association Needs Thorough Reorganization"" is a call to action for those who believe that the study of history is vital to the health of a society, and that the AHA needs to be restructured in order to better serve that purpose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
