In this assignment, you will begin the preliminary work for your term paper, which is due at the end of the class.
Review the question and requirements for the essay, found here. Then, find at least 3 secondary and 1 primary sources. At least one of the secondary sources has to be a real book (not a web site), and all of the secondary sources must be scholarly (as described here). Moreover, your textbook is not a valid source for this assignment; you can certainly use it for your paper, but you must have 3 secondary sources besides it. Also, your online sources must be from reputable, scholarly sources, such as universities, historical journals, or others along those lines; do not try to use the History Channel’s website (history.com), or biography.com, for example. Please use this template to help you format this assignment.
If you need a review of what primary and secondary sources are, check out the “What Are Primary and Secondary Sources?” page.
