From 1966 to 1970, historian Martin Duberman transformed his
undergraduate Princeton seminar on American radicalism. This book looks
closely at the seminar, drawing on interviews with former students and
colleagues, conversations with Duberman, and abundant archival material
in the Princeton archives and the Duberman Papers. The array of evidence
makes the book a primer on how historians gather and interpret evidence
while at the same time shining light on the tumultuous late 1960s in
American higher education. This book will become a tool for teaching,
inspiring educators to rethink the ways in which history is taught and
teaching students how to reason historically through sources.
