Science and history are two entirely different things. The findings in science rely on repeatable and measurable experimentation. The findings in history rely on the writings and recollection of that most imperfect organism - Man. Let us take an example. Various miners strikes. Do we believe that the miners were 'reds under the beds' or that the government were oppressing the workers. Both stories have been reported. As an historian which do you put in your book?
