Leaving Cert History

I have started the planning stage of my History investigation project, but my mind has hit a blank. Does anyone have any ideas, which have a lot of primary sources? All the ideas Ive had are a bit too obscure and dont have much material on them Thanks

Well mine had nothing, I had to order books in from Easons and chapters. You could search Amazon for primary source books then order them in through Easons/Chapters? If it's Irish, then the National Archives and National library should help, it it's not, you could write to the embassy? Unless it's a national atrocity the country will send you stuff.

Afaik every county has a research library (Or sligo does at least) so go to your regular library and ask them to tell you where it is. They should have everything you need for local/Irish stuff for the LC. You really shouldn't have any need to go near the National Archives.
