Writing History The best way to understand history is to do history. We do history by conducting research and writing up the results of our investigations. This requires reading published research, asking questions, and then going after the sources that will help us answer these questions. Most historical publications (books, journals, magazines) use the Chicago Manual of Style as the guide for citing sources. The Notes and Bibliography style is easiest for citing primary sources. Most of the books and articles we read for this class use this as the style guide. Chapter 14.229 provides several examples of how to cite primary sources. You can also use this "cheat sheet" I created as an easy reference. Use these as examples of how to cite your sources. Talk to Prof. Anderson about additional questions you have. A few books and resources that will prove useful for those who wish to dig deeper into historical questions and methods:
