About John Higham
John William Higham was an American historian, scholar of American culture, historiography and ethnicity. In the 1950s he was a prominent critic of consensus history. Historian Dorothy Ross says, "The multi-ethnic environment of his early life in Queens, the wartime optimism, and his immersion in Progressive history, with its fundamental faith in American democracy, gave him a vision of an egalitarian, cosmopolitan, American nationalism in which he never lost faith."
