US History II – Primary Source Documents Reading List
NEED HELP WRITING AN ESSAY
Tell us about your assignment and we will find the best writer for your project.
Get Help Now!The following are the primary source documents that you’ll be assigned to read during the semester. Make sure you’ve read the instructions, posted separately, so you know what to do and when the papers are due. You must write at least 2 full pages (plus one line onto another page) of research plus the works cited page. I do count lines if you’re short or only get to 2 pages by not following the requirements. Quality are quantity are both important. Remember to proofread your work!
Don’t use the way I’m listing these as the way you list them. I’m merely making a list. Make sure you find the proper names, dates, formats, etc. for your papers. If any of the websites on this list give any type of overview, background info, or summary, you can’t use that information or the paper will receive a lower or failing grade (even if cited correctly). Find that info elsewhere if you really want to use it. Remember, NEVER use Wikipedia or any encyclopedias, online or otherwise or you risk failing the assignment. If a document has multiple numbered or listed sections, don’t translate/explain each part or you’ll lose points. Summarize only the major parts or ideas (exception: cover each of the freedoms in the Four Freedoms speech).
