Explanation:

Non-fiction are supposed to relate facts as they happened. They might even not be completely accurate, but the intent and efforts behind it are supposed to make it as accurate as possible, and that's why they are a source of information, not entertainment. A primary source of information, and also a piece of non-fiction, is Benjamin Franklin's autobiography that includes many moments of his life when he was writing letters to talk about his experiments or other things. Those letters many times were translated to different languages and published.
