Because im really struggling. I find it hard to retain all the information and then we get questioned on it as a starter, but its made me hate the lessons as i know i can never recall anything off the top of my head. The Textbook i use is Britain 1783-1918 by Derrick Murphy, but i dont find it helpful or easy to understand. For the Russian i have the new AQA textbook which is better but i dont know if you can get one for british. What do you use? Do you know of any good history websites on these topics? Anyone else feel the same xxxxxx
