Reading in History

To read in History; you must be neutral and use more than one source to read. A source which belongs to the historical event it self and another that has another view of it. I usually buy two books talking about the same event; but two different writers with two different backgrounds and views. This makes it clearer and makes me less bigoted to a certain view or opinion. At the end I still have doubts about what I read, if it was correct, if there was something not mentioned and if the writer was exaggerating or not. Still, reading in History is fun.

Jasmine; Hala feech :) this book is an old Chinese book that I found in Victoria and Albert museum ... Sure I didn't read it for two reasons:

2. It was in Chinese :P

you can never be neutral even if you try as hard as you can

q8ibloger; and that is why you can't be sure about any History book, because the writers then selves can't be neutral.
