A Short Guide to Writing About History by Richard A Marius
An ideal supplement in any history course that requires writing, A Short Guide to Writing About History stresses thinking and writing like a historian. This engaging and practical little text helps students get beyond merely compiling dates and facts; it teaches them how to incorporate their own ideas into their papers and to tell a story about history that interests them and their peers. Covering both brief essays and the documented resource paper, the text explores the writing and researching processes, different modes of historical writing including argument and concludes with guidelines for improving style.
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.
