Book Description
Originally published in 1964, the Second Edition of Gray's work is a treasure trove of basic, practical information that has served as an invaluable tool for generations of researchers and writers. One of the most useful handbooks of its kind, this inexpensive paperback is considered by many to be vital reading. The central chapters, which focus on the pursuit of evidence, open up the various library resources, indexes, finding-aids, and bibliographies in a manageable and topical format. Furthermore, the book sets out a topical introduction to the debates on the nature of history and outlines the nuts and bolts of research and writing.
Publisher Description
Consider this title of related interest also available from Waveland Press: McCloskey, Economical Writing, Second Edition (ISBN 1577660633).
Reader Reviews
All I can say about this book is worthless, useless, because only first ten pages is usefull. If you want to learn how to write about history, go buy "A Short Guide to Writing About History" by Richard Marius.
