Brundage describes different examples df primary and secondary sources in Chapter 2. He urges the researcher to consider all types of sources when doing their project but he warns that you should consider the motives of both the author and editor. For example, newspaper articles are designed to influence public opinion and a paper's political orientation should be considered.
I would like to learn more about "monographs" as i didnt quite understand that section of the chapter and how to locate newspaper articles. I was also wondering if "popular" books on a topic are acceptable sources for this project.
