Links of Interest |

Historic Mount Vernon: The Home of Our First President, George Washington. Visit the Educational Resources to read the fast facts about Washington (for example, did he really chop down that cherry tree?) or to read his biography. There are also photos available of Mount Vernon, though the quality is rather grainy and the photos are small. Lynx users cannot access the photos unfortunately. |
|
Abraham Lincoln Online: This is a wonderful site containing the full text of many of Lincoln's speeches, including his first and second inaugural addresses, as well as biographical information, and descriptions of historic sites, such as Ford's Theatre. |
|
Lincoln: This site provides a timeline of Lincoln's presidency, images, and the full text of several documents, including the Emancipation Proclamation. |
May the trail rise to meet you.
May the Sun shine always at your back and
