Granta., 2013. Softcover. Very Good. Dead Certainties: Unwarranted Speculations" is an intriguing exploration of historical interpretation and the elusive nature of truth. This thought-provoking book challenges traditional notions of historical certainty by examining two historical mysteries—the murder of George Parkman in 19th-century Boston and the fate of British explorer Sir John Franklin's ill-fated Arctic expedition. Through a blend of factual accounts, fictionalized narratives, and philosophical reflections, the author delves into the complexities of historical interpretation and the fallibility of our understanding. "Dead Certainties" invites readers to question the assumptions and narratives that shape our understanding of the past and challenges the notion of absolute historical truth. Crisp, clean, unread book with some shelfwear/edgewear. May have remainder marks, often with a black dot or similar mark, to the top or bottom edge of the book.
