National Archives on YouTube

By , About.com GuideJune 23, 2009

Follow me on:

Now this is really neat. The US National Archives has just posted 17 videos from its vast storage of historic audiovisual records to YouTube.

Among the tasty things of interest to archaeologists and historians is an 1933 video called "Rebuilding Indian Country", a 1935 short on California redwoods, and a biographical sketch about Dr. Robert Goddard, the father of modern rocketry. My favorite has got to be the half-hour video called "Stories from the Great Depression".
