Great resourceBy Jane AustenIt can be a little dry and you get the impression that the authors are not as up to date on technology as they could be but it still has valid points for both professional and amateur historians. It can help anyone who is working on history of a particular location or particular house. Great resource0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Four StarsBy Jake BarteauA great book for exploring Public History--I used this for one of my books in my Masters exam.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Local history made easyBy Nick VulichThis is a textbook for one of my graduate history classes. As textbooks go; it's not bad. It's easy to read and contains a lot of information for how to approach local history. if you're planning to write a about a local person; place; or event you'll find the information here helpful.Some of the topics covered are how to evaluate sources; some tips on how to approach and use pictures; the questions you should ask when examining artifacts; and how to evaluate the changing local landscape.I would recommend the book for budding local historians.
