Notes and study guides on History and French Culture, suitable for students worldwide.
I graduated with a first-class degree from Durham University studying History and French. I used the notes now uploaded to Stuvia throughout my four years at University, to consolidate lectures and revise for exams.
I hope they prove useful to any potential buyer !
