List of Sources

Below is a list of sources for you the historian. Now while historians actually travel to dusty old archives scattered across the country and the world to do hands-on research, this can give you some insight into what we frequently are off doing (at our own expense by the way) during the summer. Some of these sources are primary sources and some are secondary or even tertiary. Some bibliographic information has been provided that should help you to correctly create your bibliographies.
