Marcia C. reviewed The Art of Creative Research: A Field Guide for Writers (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing) on + 703 more book reviews
This was recommended by a writing teacher, and the book is twice as interesting as I expected. Instead of dry how-to's, it offers plump, fascinating anecdotes about all kinds of research, from deciphering brittle library archives to handling antique muskets to understand the feelings of Revolutionary War soldiers - and more. Inspiring and informative. Highly recommended.
