For students working on a campaign analysis, your professor is your resource for topic formulation and specific instructions on how to do the analysis. We recommend that you start this project early, as it will require deep research over time.

The librarians at the Frary Library in the Hopkins Bloomberg Center (D.C.)  (email) can help you find a range of authoritative resources, including books, scholarly articles, and - whenever possible - primary research.

• Bibliographies: A good first stop is the Oxford Bibliographies, which has curated lists of books - including primary sources - on military history. Search by campaign or keyword. This is a high quality, trusted resource.
• Books: Use Catalyst to discover books on the topic. For more book sources, look at the bibliographies / footnotes of helpful books and papers you've already found. To get books JHU doesn't own (or are checked out), try requesting them via Borrow Direct.
• Articles: Hopkins has an excellent set of databases for scholarly articles. including ProQuest and JStor. You can also use Catalyst to find scholarly articles.
• Military Histories: Official publications produced by a country's military establishment to document various wars. See these options for military histories.
• Primary Sources: These are original documents and objects, created at the time, by those with firsthand experience in the campaign. Examples include diaries, correspondence, original maps and documents. Take a look at: 1) the Primary Sources page of this guide and 2) the Primary Resources for International Relations guide.
• Maps: Take a look at: 1) the Maps tab on the Primary Sources page of this guide and 2) the maps page in the Primary Resources for International Relations guide.
