Here you will find the sources I use for HANZ. I’ve split them up generally into the different topics if appropriate but other than that they aren’t in any particular order. This will be added to as we progress in our story and I use more and more sources. Please note there may be sources not listed here that I use to confirm and corroborate certain evidence. I just want to give you the main sources I used for the episodes, rather than weigh you down with lots of different books and articles. Hopefully you can find supplementary reading for a topic you are particularly interested in which can launch you into further reading for you to learn something new!
