Historians who were once unable to gain access to sources due to limitations in time, or distance, or both, now have ways of getting their hands on them. Secondary source Articles can be scanned and emailed; scholarly journals are available online; interlibrary loans are seamlessly processed. All of this makes researching much easier and much less frustrating for the historian, and it allows him or her more time to make critical decisions, and to explore avenues that would not otherwise be considered.
So, there you have it Hopefully as time goes on we get better in telling the stories of the past and make them more accessible to the public. Posted by Tim Talbott at AM. Anonymous August 29, at PM.

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged. In many ways, history interprets the events and causes that contributed to our current world. Studying the diversity of human experience helps us appreciate cultures, ideas, and traditions that are not our own — and to recognize them as meaningful products of specific times and places.
History helps us realize how different our lived experience is from that of our ancestors, yet how similar we are in our goals and values. In learning about the past, we often discover how our own lives fit into the human experience.
Bitzan was able to integrate some of the letters into his class on the Holocaust to bring to life for his students the day-to-day realities of being Jewish in Nazi-occupied Poland. Imagine asking a question about the past, assembling a set of clues through documents, artifacts, or other sources, and then piecing those clues together to tell a story that answers your question and tells you something unexpected about a different time and place. Everything we do, everything we use, everything else we study is the product of a complex set of causes, ideas, and practices.
