The study of history has sometimes been classified as part of the humanities and at other times as part of the social sciences. It can also be seen as a bridge between those two broad areas, incorporating methodologies from both. Some individual historians strongly support one or the other classification.

All the more so for its military.No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality. 8vo; 22.5 cm; 8.75 inches tall; 175 pages with Bibliography and Index. View more info
