It will certainly be interesting how history plays out on the last 20 years in America. So much has happened both good and evil. I wonder who/what will make the cut in the history books.
Mostly I do now believe History needs 50+ years to get distance from the personal. I like Martin Gilbert and Anthony Beevor immensely. I've had both Russian, and American historian-aligned-people take them down gloriously. I don't think either Gilbert or Beevor are seen in good standing, all the time by people in Moscow and Harvard.
