History and Liberty: The Historical Writings of Benedetto Croce, by A. Robert Caponigri. 284 pp. Chicago: Henry Regnery Company. $4.00

The work of Benedetto Croce has been a powerful force against that worm’s-eye view of history that would deny meaning and purpose to the human experience, and make of it a drab tale of occurrences. His influence is pervasive, but his work itself, particularly his historical work, is not well known by this generation.
