The Evening post a century of journalism, by Allan Nevins. New York: Oxford University Press, American branch, 1917. Rockefeller, Industrialist and Philanthropist (1953). Nevins own distinguished works include American States During and After the Revolution, 1775-79 (1924), the magisterial four-volume Ordeal of the Union (1947-71), and the two-volume Study in Power: John D. After the Council rejected the idea, Nevins acted to create a separate organization, the Society of American Historians, "To promote literary distinction in historical writing." He also attacked the pedantry of many academic historians in the Saturday Review of Literature, which produced a sharp rift in the profession. In an effort to bring the "guild historians" together with "nonacademic historians," Nevins proposed the creation of a journal of popular history to the AHA Council in 1938. His presidential address only lightly hints at the fact that he was noted for having one of the most contested relationships with the organization over which he later presided. Allan Nevins was distinguished as a journalist, author, and history professor at Columbia University.
