内容説明

This short guide introduces students to historical research and discovery while teaching them how to write cogent history papers. Focusing on more than just the conventions of good writing, this supplement shows students first how to think about history, and then how to organize their thoughts into coherent essays. This book teaches students how to use and evaluate primary and secondary sources, and shows them how to work their own thoughts into their writing to make their papers more than mere reports. This second edition is streamlined for greater ease of use, and contains an expanded range of examples of social and women's history to help make the text more inclusive.
