Trainee Tuesday: Researching to help us Remember | The National Archives blog | Antiques & Vintage Collectibles | Scoop.it

[T]he project I am currently working on, identifying and researching the First World War collections that we hold, is the one that has most inspired me and captured my interest. From a collection of poems and illustrations made by soldiers whilst they were being treated in Bradford War Hospital, to official minutes from the meetings of Otley’s Belgian Refugee Committee, to personal letters and diaries giving an insight into what life was like during 1914-1918 both at home and at the front; the collections are vast and draw on personal experiences as well as official documentation issued at the time.

Deanna Dahlsad's insight:

History personalized through letters and objects.
