Newspaper Headlines That tell the History of the US
Newspapers as we know them are disappearing at an alarming rate. This book recalls famous events in the history of the US on the front page of one of the 20th century's most important paper. From the Titanic Sinking to the start and end of WW2 and beyond the significan events in US history are capsulized on the front pages of the times. This book will be passed on to future generations when the last printed newspaper turns off it's ink on paper reporting. A terrific gift or a treasured momento of the way it was.........
