This website describes a digital history project
I have been working on and off for the past few years. It can be viewed as an electronic scholarly essay, a GIS or data
mining project, an exhibit, or a discussion area. This project originally started with an attempt to answer a simple
question, but over time it has developed into a full-fledged investigation that leverages multiple online resources.
Because of this, it is an excellent candidate for a digital history to illustrate one or all of the following aspects:
-
A microhistory of US military preparedness before WWII
-
An example of digital forensics, or how different online sources can be
investigated and cross-referenced for evidence
-
A subject for web-enabled presentation, using different digital methods
to present the investigation and its results
I hope you enjoy this site, but as you review it bear in mind that it's most definitely UNDER CONSTRUCTION. If
you are so inclined, e-mail to let me know what you think (or to contribute articles or ideas). I'll be updating frequently,
so check back often!
