Writing about Archives

https://youtu.be/MfOmHctGszQ

In this short film Dr Trev Broughton talks about writing on official records like minutes and wills or on private papers such as letters, diaries, and manuscript autobiographies.

This film is one of the "Writing about..." series of films by the Department of English and Related Literature at the University of York. They are part of the department's Writing Resources, a range of simple resources to help anyone improve the quality of their writing.
