Bringing together practical methods from both history and composition, Writing History provides students with a wealth of tips and advice on the ways that historians write. A simple, concise manual, it covers all aspects of writing about history, including finding topics and researching them, interpreting source materials, drawing inferences from sources, and constructing arguments.

Using numerous examples from the work of cultural, political, and social historians, it deals with the history of every continent and serves as an ideal supplement to all history courses where writing is required. Addressing the problems that all historians face when writing, Writing History is a perfect guide for undergraduate history students and graduate students in need of writing advice.
