ReactJs - Validating proptypes

I have the following prop

this.props.history.push('/');

Which throws an error when trying to validate

AddPerson.propTypes = {
  history: React.PropTypes.Object,
}

My declarations

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import axios from 'axios';

Any idea how I can validate this property?

Edit:

So my declaration now look like

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import axios from 'axios';

and because history is a not required prop I used default props.

AddPerson.defaultProps = {
  history: PropTypes.Object,
};

Hope this helps someone.

Might you could do the prop type like: PropTypes.oneOfType([PropTypes.object])

It should be

AddPerson.propTypes = {
  history: React.PropTypes.object
}

instead of 

AddPerson.propTypes = {
  history: React.PropTypes.Object //should be object
}
