Illuminating Reno's Divorce Industry | Reno Divorce History - 2 views
-
Our students know that divorce is part of life, yet it is not a part of their history courses, it is rarely, if ever mentioned. Divorce has a history all of it's own, and many, many American's lives were shaped by it. In the early 1900s, the ability to obtain a legal divorce was difficult and in some instances, required relocation to a jurisdiction that offered liberal divorce laws. Although Las Vegas, Nevada might be known for quick marriages, it was in Reno, Nevada that legal divorces were available to residents who there for only six weeks. This online exhibit organized by Special Collections at the University of Nevada, Reno, Libraries, presents documents from the city's heyday as the divorce capital of the United States.

I have added a link in the first chapter of Interactive Internet Economic Notes http://www.textbooksfree.org/Economics_1_Economics_Defined.htm and plan to add individuals throughout the notes. Chapter 3 on the Characteristics of Market System Capitalism and Political Economy may be useful. http://www.textbooksfree.org/Economics_3_Basic_Characteristics_of_Capitalism.htm. One page on capitalism is at http://www.textbooksfree.org/Quick%20Notes%20History%20Political%20Economy%20Capitalism.htm.

The History Engine: Doing History with Digital Tools | Academic Commons - 0 views
-
'One of the primary goals of the History Engine project has been to design a research and writing exercise modest enough in its analytical scope and its length that it allows students to "do history" long before a senior seminar or capstone course. (Another important goal, discussed below, is to capture this research to amass a large history archive.) The History Engine is an online archive consisting of thousands of "episodes" written and contributed by undergraduates.'
