His name is James Fitzgerald and he wrote The Cold War and Beyond he is generally accepted as a historian even though he wrote this textbook. Once again it comes down to the debate on whether textbook writers are historians, and most people agreee that in this case he is a historian.

Hope that helps:)

(P.S. im using him as my historian, he is a post-revisionist also):wave:
