Answer:
In a simple words, history is a piece of writing that tells us about the happenings of the past.
It can be in a form of a narrative, a dialogue; it can be written in a journal, diary or in a banana leaves, as long as it tells us something about a significant event or of the long lost chapters of our past.
However, the veracity of documents pertaining to history varies from one author to another. Since history is usually written by victors, its subjective and bias nature greatly influences the written accounts.
That is why in studying history, we are highly encourage to look into the primary sources or to credible and trustworthy authors and historians.
For most uneducated youth now-a-days, they become the victims of the propagation of a false sense of history or what we call historical revisionism.
In studying history, it would be of great help if we are highly critical of what we read.
