"Analyzing Use of Evidence
Mortimer’s book The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England is written in the style of a travel guide, which is an effective way of sharing information about a time period. Mortimer presents information as advice from a second-person point of view. For example, he writes, "You might feel inclined to turn to poaching. But be careful: this is risky.” Writing about the consequences of poaching by first offering a warning makes the text more fun to read, and also helps Mortimer transition to explaining important information about the time period."
