"Across the Generations: Exploring U.S. History through Family Papers," includes photographs and documents from the papers of four families: the Bodmans, Dunhams, Garrisons, and Hales and focuses on four broad themes in U.S. social history: Family Life; Social Awareness and Reform; Arts and Leisure; and Work. Family papers can offer a window onto evolving social conditions, on-going economic change, new political trends, and cultural shifts over time. Although this is but a tiny sampling of the treasures found in these valuable collections of family papers, we hope the exhibit will serve to enrich the viewer's understanding by offering glimpses of a handful of moments in American history through the eyes of individuals who experienced them. You can view it by visiting the SSC Web site.
