You can do this multiple ways: (Parenthetical documentation): Ex: The sugar island of Jamaica produced 59,400 tons of sugar in 1789 (The Caribbean). Introduce the source in the beginning of your sentence: According to Sydney W. Mintz, sugar became connected to other products such as, “…tea, coffee, and chocolate.” Introduce the source at the end of your sentence: Once sugar was introduced in Europe, “…no person was ever known to have the power of relinquishing the desire for it,” as described by Dr. Moseley.
What else?! When you include quotes or cited material you must explain why you used it, not just include it Ex: According to Sydney W.
