Subject is notable, article is new and long enough, and hook is supported by inline citations. I would suggest that the article could be expanded in these areas (1) A statement in the lead paragraph about his area of specialization as a historian; (2) A statement in the body of the article specifying his university degree (I gather he had a doctorate in history), and the fact that he became preeminent in the field of business history although he had no formal training in economics (citations 1 and 3 mention this); (3) A statement in the body of the article concerning his publications (citation 3 mentions 'more than 27 books (some co-authored or edited), and more than 100 scholarly articles; (4) Perhaps something on the personal level (several cited articles mention his passion for opera and his qualities as a lecturer and mentor of students). I would also suggest that under the heading 'Books', the titles should be italicized, and full bibliographic information should be provided, as this is an article about an academic.
