At once memoir and meditation, Keeping Time records one professional historian’s struggle to live in history even as he studies it, writes about it, and teaches it. Exploring the omnipresence of the past in American life today, Carroll weaves into his autobiographical narrative a wealth of provocative observations on the practice of history.
