Re: [LM_NET] historical pictures

It was probably the Library of Congress---- American Memories Project.
 There are a ton of great photographs that will inspire and create
wonderful opportunities for research and expansions of units.

My favorite of all is when you can share things like photos that are
well-known.  For example, the photo of the cover from "Out of the
Dust" was taken from the LOC....this was a real person (Lucille
Burroughs) and her photo is located in the American Memories Project.

Here's a link to the AMP site:

Here's a project for "Out of the Dust" with a link to Lucille's
original photo from the cover of the book.  (Listed on the page under
"PROCEDURES"-->step 2)
