For History Buffs

Philomena at All These Things has given blogdom a valuable tool: an online exhibition from the Imperial War Museum in London. The exhibit commemorates The Battle of The Somme during World War I.

Philomena writes:

The whole concept of an online exhibition is new to me, and what a great idea for those of us who always say we are going to visit museums and rarely get there. This one is extremely informative collection, not just of historical facts and battle paraphanalia, but of personal stories, letters, diaries and photographs that give us some glimse as to what it was like to be involved.

I encourage you to read Philomena's entire posting here, and spend time at the Imperial War Museum of London here.
