Summary: History Through Different Windows
Comment: Weber has put together a selection of informative essays by different authors, all dealing with the famed Pueblo Revolt of 1680. Given that the (for a time successful) uprising took place, the question for students of history is the standard one: Why?
As the essays in this book point out, there is no one answer to that question. There are, instead, many answers, and additional questions.
In history, it's not so much a case of arriving at the "truth." Rather, it's the journey of discovery that really counts. The essays Weber has collected run the gamut, from turgid academic writing and sniping to refreshingly clearly-stated prose. His introduction is masterly, the bibliographic references invaluable, and the overall effect one of having learned just how complex and diverse the causes of an effect can be.
Highly recommended for readers interested in this area, especially for classroom use at the college and university level.
