Picturing U.S. History

I just came across the Picturing U.S. History Project site, an effort of the Graduate Center of the City University of New York and the American Social History Project. It includes great visual materials for teaching various topics in American history, as well as interpretative essays and viewing guides for teachers and students. Using visual evidence in the classroom can be difficult, but can also be very rewarding for both teachers and students. I have visited a number of sites like this one, and some are good and others not so good. This one is worth your time.
