A Short Guide to Writing about History by Richard A Marius
An ideal complement for any history course, A Short Guide to Writing about History helps you learn how to think and write like an historian. This engaging and practical text helps you get beyond merely compiling dates and facts; it teaches you how to incorporate your own ideas into your papers and to tell a story about history that interests you and your peers. Covering brief essays and the documented resource paper, the text explores the writing and researching processes, different modes of historical writing (including argument), and offers guidelines for improving style as well as documenting sources.
Page, Melvin E.: - Within a year of his arrival in Malawi as a Fulbright lecturer, Mel Page began a career of historical research focusing on the impact the First World War had on the country. These two volumes offer both a foundation and the culmination of decades devoted to this project, and are a vital supplement to his book, The Chiwaya War.
