the war.

Your essay must be a minimum of two pages and must use at least your textbook and two articles from the CSU Online

Library. Any information from outside sources must be cited and referenced in APA format, and your paper should be

formatted in APA style to include a title page, running head, and reference page.

Articles can be from any library database accessible through the CSU Library, though America: History and Life with Full

Text is strongly suggested. Any article used must be a full-text article and academic in nature, and reviews are not

acceptable to fulfill this requirement. Library staff is available to help you locate an article for your chosen subject.

The following articles are a few examples of the type of article that is acceptable for this assignment. Notice how each is a

full article and not a book review that is commonly found in the databases.
