The Library of Congress was a source of many of the images in my books. Often I could find an image with a date that corresponded with the time frame of a chapter. Sometimes it took several different word combinations to find what I was looking for. And sometimes, I had to search elsewhere.

Along with Photos, Prints, and Drawings, Library of Congress offers searches for maps, books, manuscripts, notated music, newspapers, periodicals, web pages and more.
