Pastors, partners, and paternalists : African church leaders and western missionaries in the Anglican Church in Kenya, 1850-1900 /
:
A study tracing the relationships between missionaries and African Church workers in Kenya in the years 1850-1900, as missionaries increasingly adopted imperial assumptions of Western superiority. It tells the story of the first Anglican clergy in Kenya, their wives and colleagues; their rescue from slavery, their education in India and their subsequent work in East Africa. It demonstrates their contribution to the rapid growth of the Church and of indigenous Christian communities. Yet later missionaries were not willing to accord to the Africans the position they had a right to expect. The book recounts their protest and the development of a Church order. Similar events in West Africa have been documented, but this is the first time such a pattern in East Africa has been outlined.

Cassius Dio the Historian : Methods and Approaches /
:
This volume focuses on Cassius Dio as a historian - the only historian who allows us to follow the developments of Rome's political institutions during a more than thousand year period, from the foundation of the city to Cassius Dio's retirement from public life in 229 CE. The volume explores the Roman historian's methodology and agendas, all of which influenced his approaches to Rome's history. It offers a reassessment that rests on a deeper study of his relationship with historiographical traditions as well as his narrative and structural approach to Roman history. It examines Cassius Dio as both a writer in the historiographic tradition with his own agenda for writing The Roman History and a historian with his own ambition to tell the history of Rome.

The Historian's Craft /
:
This seminal work by the founder of Annales School, Marc Bloch discusses history writing from many perspectives, rather than a singular method and what comprises history. The Historian's Craft covers the issues concerning what comprises history. This book also deals with the concept of time, historical observation, criticism, analysis, and causation. Citing pieces of evidence from certain history-related documents such as the Commentaries of Julius Caesar and Protocols of the Elders of Zion, he exemplifies the examples of history writing and forgeries. This book explains that the history based on judgemental aspect is something not to be done, and provides a wider explanation rather than providing in normative terms.
