Widely acclaimed for its accessibility and engaging approach to the subject, the fourth edition of The Methods and Skills of History combines theory with hands-on practice in its comprehensive introduction to historical research and writing. The new edition preserves many of the features that users praised from previous editions, along with numerous updates in content, style, and organization. Revisions include an additional chapter on the treatment of historical writing, with an emphasis on history as storytelling. There is a more in-depth discussion of electronic research, including the pros and cons of online research and accessibility to and assessment of current online resources. A new section features the use of photos as evidence and expanded discussions of historical causality and gender-based history. As before, both old and new exercises draw on a wide variety of historical texts. This new edition of The Methods and Skills of History will continue to be an invaluable resource for students and instructors alike.Michael Salevouris is a Professor Emeritus of History at Webster University in St. Louis.

It puts the study of history into a rich context often neglected by the boring Instructors who believe teaching dates -and -places is enough.Although this a textbook, it moves along well, offers some exercises for students to apply their newly-found skills, and is worth re-reading for older scholars preparing to write articles, books and essays.Like.Kim BurdickStanton, DelawareThis is an excellent book that I plan to use for my college ... This is an excellent book that I plan to use for my college history students because it will be very helpful to them as they research and write their papers for class.Good guide to historiography and historical research techniques If you're thinking of becoming a historian, this book really helps. It was assigned in a historiography class I'm taking for my MA and it really is full of information. The exercises that the professor assigned in the book were helpful as well. If you're buying the book new, make sure the pages are all in it before you order it, the pages with the exercises are perforated and could be torn out really quickly. The copy I bought had a couple of torn out pages, luckily they were still in the book so I wasn't missing anything.
