Jack H. Hexter (who published as J.H. Hexter) received his doctorate from Harvard and later taught at Yale and Washington University (St. Louis), specializing in Tudor history and seventeenth century British history, as well as historiography.
Hexter's clear and insightful essay on Pocock's MACHIAVELLIAN MOMENT and his lavishly detailed tribute to Fernand Braudel are the highlights of this fine collection.
