Each student will research and write a twenty-page historical research paper examining some aspect of the history of the United States home front during World War II. Your citations will be in the form of footnotes or endnotes, following Turabian and the Chicago Manual of Style, and you must also include a complete bibliography of all sources cited in the paper. Your paper topic must be approved by the professor prior to the start of your research.
Your paper must be based on at least twelve primary sources of various types (the bare minimum) and preferably no more than five (footnoted and scholarly) secondary sources. The best papers will almost certainly use far more than this bare minimum of primary sources.
