Brundage Chapter Five

Brundage shows us what a Historiographical essay is. In doing so he also explains to his audience what not to write about. As I read in other posts by our classmates I couldn't help but to agree with them on the picking of a broad topic and how to refine your search. I noticed how important it is not to pick something that is too broad because their are books that are hundreds even thousands of pages long about these topics. It is very important to look at a topic and break it down into different events or views  or specific items the we as researches will be able to find enough information about these topics.

What is the point of breaking a historical event down?
