Summary: The importance of primary sources
Review: Rather than a secondary account of history, the Bedford Reader provides material from that era, and guides the reader in drawing their own conclusions. It can help teach a student how to do research THEMSELVES and interpret the data they find, rather than relying on what's told to them by textbooks and the internet.Chapters contain: Notes from archaeological digs, colonial and slave diary entries, minutes from Constitutional debates, newspaper clippings and advertisements, popular toast songs of the revolution, and so much more.
