“Evaluating the Evidence” features provide practice working with documents. Selected for their interest and carefully integrated into their historical context, these sources (three per chapter) provide students with the means and tools for building
historical skills, including chronological reasoning, explaining causation, evaluating context, and assessing perspective. Headnotes and questions help students understand the source and connect it to the information in the rest of the chapter.
