Primary and Secondary Sources Comparison



What do primary and secondary sources both have in common? Primary and secondary sources both have in common are that they both contain facts and opinions. Primary sources are different to secondary sources because primary is straight facts because the person was there and then on secondary the writer writes about the event without participating in it. A few examples of primary sources are diaries, letters, autobiographies, and speeches. Then in secondary sources they are encyclopedia, biographies, reference books, and Most Newspapers and Magazine articles. Primary and Secondary sources are helpful because in primary sources it may contain facts and details only a eye witness can state. Then, in secondary sources it is helpful because it is on several different view points.
