These documents, housed in the National Archives and Records Administration are being scanned in color, and transcribed, providing access to the millions of records centered around Lincoln and the Civil War years. <br /><br />Not only are there primary source documents, but there are newspapers, political cartoons, maps, and photographs. An interactive timeline covers Lincoln's life. Video podcasts from leading Lincoln and Civil War scholars provide insight to special topics.<br /><br />The website is www.lincolnarchives.us.Karen Needleshttp://www.lincolnarchives.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946109972966431326.post-6647158927651060872011-01-24T00:12:54.355-05:002011-01-24T00:12:54.355-05:00Love this post!
