The History Student Writer's Manual
Brief, yet comprehensive, this  user-friendly reference/text provides history students with practical advice  about how to improve their writing and study skills while learning about  history.  It presents the discipline of history as a very  relevant social science, demystifies the writing process, lessens students'  anxiety over library research, and reviews the rudimentary skills necessary for  “surviving” a college history course. It offers guides to preparing  different types of history papers and features fun and interesting creative  writing exercises that invite readers into the world of writing history  in unique ways that are more enjoyable than traditional approaches.
