Much of the way that today's generation of scholars approaches the historical record grows out of [this] work.' (Michael J. O'Brien, University of Missouri) '[T]he most important piece of theoretical work ever written in historical archaeology. [I]t forced historical archaeology to mature.' (Charles E. Orser, Jr., Illinois State University) 'The publication of Method and Theory in Historical Archeology was the high point for the impact of the `New Archaeology' and processual studies on historical archaeology.' (Robert L. Schuyler, University of Pennsylvania)
