WRONG ANSWER.

REVISIONIST historiography began at the earliest in 1965 at the history department @ harvard university.

revisionist historiography is now and always has been a reflection of the most extreme, hatefilled, self-serving,self-righteous, leftist/statist/fascist school of political thought out of the "oh, so PC" poison-ivy league schools of new england.

none of the writings/thoughts of Davis nor Stephens fit that description.

SORRY, but i'm not buying any;neither are any of the more well-read sorts on FR.

once again, until about 1960, traditional historians were either neutral or openly PRO-southern.

You studied history. It was my undergraduate minor. You know as well as I do, historians are like economists ... you ask ten of them the same question and you get ten different explanations.

All history is revisionist.
