Readers of factual material should bear in mind this 
aspect: their authors, like authors of fiction, have 
beliefs and theories that affect the way they present 
their subject matter. For example, a British 
professor's account of the American Revolution 
would be different from the version written by a 
professor from the United States. Because of national 
loyalties, the two scholars might look at the events 
from different angles: the former as a colonial 
rebellion on a distant continent, and the second as a 
struggle for personal freedom. The two authors would 
write from different points of view and express 
certain opinions because they have different ways of 
looking at the subject.
