Understanding history can be more difficult than
many people imagine. Historians concern
themselves not only with what happened but with
why it happened. They analyze and assess a
variety of sources, including primary sources

historian is examining) and secondary sources
(ones written by other historians after the
period), to create their own interpretations of
the past.
