Undoubtedly the historian's document is a positive and strong source of evidence for historical interpretation provided it is not affected by personal prejudices, selfish national interests or affiliations. History is seldom honest. Mostly it has been mis-interpreted and distorted because of certain vested interests - may be it be the history of Aryans, Greek, Roman or American History
