It's generally more easier if you tell us the questions and the sources that you would like us to talk about. There are some specific things that you should address, but it's really hard to say without putting them in a context.

Your source analysis DEPENDS on the nature of the source.

I want to analyse the source Maps of Time, by David Christian.

-The said book is a non-stoichedon inscription on paper.
-It is not at all fragmentary, rather complete and well-preserved.
-It is could not possibly be a forgery.
-It gives no insight whatsoever into social history.

|___> That was an analysis of a macrohistory textbook using the criteria analysing Greek social history sources. Could the above criteria be effectively used to analyse the said source? hell no! Why not? Because you have to look at each source differently, depending on it's context and content.

We can't possibly know what kind of source you're analysing, hence specific would have helped you.
