"Bernard Bailyn was a Harvard scholar whose award-winning books on early American history reshaped the study of the origins of the American Revolution. On topic after topic, in more than 20 books that he wrote or edited, he shifted the direction of scholarly inquiry, in the process winning two Pulitzer Prizes, a National Book Award, a Bancroft Prize (the most prestigious award given to scholars of American history) and, in 2011, the National Humanities Medal, presented in a White House ceremony by President Barack Obama. And as a professor at Harvard for more than a half-century, he seeded many of the nation's top university history departments with his acolytes." - NY Times Obit.
