Legal Studies - Excel and/or Heinemann as a textbook, Dotpoint for Revision.

Well for ancient it depends, but the Antiquity 2 books give a good (albeit brief) summary of all you need to know for all but the core topic for which i suggest "Pompeii and Herculaneum: Interpreting the Evidence" by brian brennan and estelle lazer.

Hope it helps.

Go for either Excel or Heinemann. Textbooks are quite expensive, and I'm just speaking from where I stand, but I'm usually on a tight budget.

in fact you do! well, it's not essential but it's probably good to. we have quite a few for the topic on 'what is history?':

history and the historians by john warren
the houses of history by anna green and kathleen troup
fifty key thinkers on history by marnie hughes-warrington

hope that helps! they are all really useful for making notes
