History Projects and Literature Review
One of the interesting aspects about history projects is the vast amount of literature that has already been written on the topic. Obviously, it is difficult for the researcher to go back in time and personally examine what happened at a specific time and on a specific date. The researcher will have to rely on the existing literature and formulate his thesis. For this, he will have to spend plenty of time in libraries scouring the shelves for every book written on the topic. He will also have to spend days and nights on the Internet looking for all the articles that have been written on the subject.

My opinion actually goes the other way. What I think is that Literature Review in history is quite easy since you have so much written about our past and we can easily locate what we need.
