AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'How do historians make sense of the past? How do they make sense of Australia in particular, and the human condition more broadly? These are the central questions posed by Canberra historian Tom Griffiths in his latest book, The Art of Time Travel. Griffiths steps back from his own work as an environmental historian to ask how thirteen other practitioners of his craft have approached the task and what answers they’ve reached. They’re not all historians. One is a writer of historical novels, another is a poet, two are archaeologists and one is a farmer. But their work all dates from the 1930s onwards.' (Introduction)
