Projects: ScrapHistories
Share the history of people, places, and things with a ScrapHistory. Bring the past alive by using the scrapbook to build connections and show relationships. For instance, Louise Hancock's diary comes alive when diary quotes are connected to historical photographs, newspaper clippings, and other primary source materials.
