Yeehaw! Some support!
Indeed, the problem may partly stem from the fact that the word 'bias' has both denotative and connotative senses. In the denotative sense, of course, as I have suggested (and you), there can be no work of 'history' that doesn't contain bias. But this doesn't mean the writer is biased in the pejorative sense of bigoted.
Language eh? Trickier than you think. Trickier than you can think...
