That's not strictly tenable, as the range of history is so vast that contemporary historians only ever write about a small portion of it, and even then sometimes only briefly. Some stuff is just waiting for historians to write about it, or not as the case may be. Some stuff from 150 years ago has been written about 20 years ago, but may not be returned to by future historians for another 100 years, if at all.
