Long Answer
1. A “historiography” is a published record of works of history that develops as historians uncover additional sources or revisit previous ideas to amend them. Historians make decisions—often subjective ones—when constructing their narratives. Thus, not all historiographies are created equal. Zinn’s own book is a correction of the previous dominant narrative. (Various chapters)
2. Christopher Columbus is the prime example of this. Even though he embarked on a “rampage of violence” to “find gold,” he has been celebrated as a hero.
