A fabulous history blog — from Maggie Koerth-Baker
Excerpt from Maggie’s posting:
If I had the time, I could probably spend the bulk of the next two days just trawling around the blog Wonders and Marvels. Curated by Vanderbilt professor Holly Tucker, the site features excerpts and tidbits from a wide variety of historical scholars.
Excerpt from Wonders & Marvels blog:
Wonders & Marvels is now a place for specialists and non-specialists to revel in the stories of the past. It is provides learning opportunities for the college students who are involved on a daily basis in building the site. Working closely with Professor Tucker, student interns have a chance to interact with scholars and other experienced authors, as well as with publicists and editors at the major publishing houses.
Wonders & Marvels is proof of the enduring links that exist between teaching and research, readers and writers, past and present. We hope you will enjoy this site as much as we do!
