Is a work that summarises/draws on multiple news articles secondary or tertiary? I wonder, because I've considered writing articles based on very old newspaper articles (eg, late 1800s). But I realise that it's actually pretty hard to do, to not take events out of context, etc. I'd be much better off using a book written by a historian...who has read the articles. Is that book secondary? Tertiary? Somewhere in between?
