I'm looking for good books that give college or graduate students an overview on how to do history, but which are specifically oriented toward writing ancient history.
The only ones I've found are Morley's Theories, Models, and Concepts in Ancient History, Morley's Writing Ancient History, and perhaps Organ's Is The Bible Fact or Fiction: An Introduction to Biblical Historiography.
Have I missed any important or useful ones?
Thanks.

Van de Mieroop's Cuneiform Texts and the Writing of History is essential reading for ancient Near Eastern history. The other books in the series may be of interest as well.
