History Book
How do you determine if a history book is reliable or not?
Let’s say that there is an event that happened a thousand years ago and you want to know what really did happen. But the problem is that some history books claim one thing and other history books claim another thing and these two claims contradict each other.
What can be done to determine what really happened back then?
Nothing can be done to determine, beyond doubt, what exactly happened one thousand years ago! The printing press had not yet been developed, almost everyone was illiterate, and most of the hand-written accounts from that era are lost. Also, the “truth” is dependent upon what you wish to know. If you are wondering about a major event in history from the year One Thousand, there may be more creditable information available than if you are interested in a more obscure occurrence. You don’t say why you are wondering whether what you are researching in various history books is reliable. If you are writing an essay, for instance, you might cite both contradictory versions since, really, you can not verify if one or either is accurate.
