纪事本末体史书。清谷应泰(1620~1690)撰。记载始自元至正十二年(公元1352年)朱元璋起兵,止于崇祯十七年(公元1644年),李自成攻下北京。把这300年间的重要史事,分为80个专题。《明史纪事本末》大约告成于顺治十五年(1658年),较后来的《明史》早了八十多年出版,《明史》凡三百三十二卷,洋洋洒洒二百八十万字,又何尝有一语提到明与后金的关系?又何尝有一字涉及清军的暴行?正是由于谷应泰对这些问题的巧妙回避,《明史纪事本末》才得以刊行,并且躲过了清廷的文字狱之害。顺治十七年(1660年),谷应泰遭到御史黄文骥弹劾,指斥书中有违碍之处。经朝廷查阅,书中尚无不妥之处,后选入《四库全书》。
