Theodore Clarke Smith (1870-1960)〔(Series Descriptions. ) Williams College. Retrieved 6 October 2015.〕 was professor of American history at Williams College from 1903 to 1938. Smith was an educationalist and curriculum reformer who served on the Committee on Curriculum of 1911-1927 and the Advisory Committee of 1911-1935. He wrote the often-cited ''The Wars Between England and America'' (1914) and produced a two volume life and letters of U.S. President, James Abram Garfield (1925).〔(Review: ''The Life and Letters of James Abram Garfield'' by Theodore Clarke Smith ), ''The American Historical Review'', Vol. 31, No. 3 (April 1926), pp. 550-554.〕 Smith contributed to the debate about the future of American historiography that took place in the American Historical Association and elsewhere. He was critical of the approach taken by James Harvey Robinson who, Smith argued, did not "consider it necessary to be impartial or even fair."〔("That Noble Dream" ), Charles A. Beard, ''The American Historical Review'', Vol. 41, No. 1. (October 1935), pp. 74-87.〕 An archive of his correspondence with Harry A. Garfield is held at Williams College.〔 ==Selected publications== *''The Liberty and Free soil Parties in the Northwest. Toppan prize essay of 1896'', Longmans, Green, and Co., New York, 1897.
