Editorial Reviews
Book Description

This primary source reader contains a multi-part pedagogical framework to guide the student through the process of historical inquiry and explanation. Its unique structure promotes critical thinking, sharpens analytical skills, and builds student interest in the subject matter.

Each chapter is organized within the same pedagogical framework: The Problem, Background, The Method, The Evidence, Questions to Consider, and Epilogue. The text features the latest scholarship in the field of Medieval history emphasizing historical study as interpretation rather than memorization of data.

• Sources touch on such issues as family, gender, and the Christian/Muslim Holy Wars.
• Actual documents and artifacts are used as the sources from which students develop answers to historical questions.
