How-to History is here to help historians. We explain events, concepts, things, themes and sources to help with the practice of researching, writing and teaching history. Each ‘How-to’ is a short guide of under a thousand words which directs you to further resources.

Subscribe to get each post straight into your inbox every other Wednesday. You can support the work of How-to History by sharing with your friends and followers or if you’re very kind, with a paid subscription.
