They, the Whig histories, each have their own Whig interpretation of their slice of the past, seen through the eyes of their present, and always with their present respective ax to grind.

I will mention only a few examples from a list that could be multiplied 10 or 20 times, easily:
Womens' History
Black History
Puerto Rican History
Left History
Right History
LGBT History
Economic History
Social History
Political History
Bear in mind that each of these Whig history categories has multiple whig subcategories, ad infinitum.
