Going to the Sources: A Guide to Historical Research and Writing

Anthony Brundage has revised his popular book to render an even more detailed, practical and "user friendly" tool for students faced with what can be a daunting task: the researching and writing of a research paper or historiographical essay. After an introductory chapter that describes the different schools of historical thought, Going to the Sources becomes a handy manual, helping the reader to identify and access the many sources--both old and new--available to historical researchers. Accordingly, this new edition includes a detailed discussion of electronic databases and a list of World Wide Web sites devoted to history.
