Peter Gays Style in History has the great merit to show that in a work of history its style is not a decorative addition to the historians narration but an integral element of the story through which its facts become alive and real. Reading Gays analysis of Gibbon and Ranke, Macaulay and Burckhardt, we understand better why they have become and are the admired masters of the historical craft.
