"Rauner Special Collections
Library at Dartmouth College is home to a number of rare books, manuscripts,
and other archival material - ranging from Babylonian clay tablets to original
work by Theodor Geisel, aka 'Dr. Seuss,' Dartmouth class of 1925. For
those of us who can't make the trip to Hanover, New Hampshire, the Rauner
Special Collections Library offers this frequently updated blog dedicated to
its eclectic collection. One recent entry highlights Gardner's Photographic
Sketch Book of the War, which was published in 1866 and documented the
American Civil War. Another recent entry, published on October 13, 2017 (Oct. 9
is celebrated in various parts of the Americas as either Columbus Day or
Indigenous People's Day), calls attention to the Bartolome De Las Casas's 1558
book A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, a text that
documented the violence of sixteenth century colonialism in the Caribbean.
Individual entries include photographs of rare items and are tagged by subject
to enable easy browsing"
