Fall 2009, vol. 41, no. 3
Prologue magazine brings readers stories based on the rich holdings and programs of the National Archives across the nation—from Washington, DC, to the regional archives and the Presidential libraries.
Prologue has been published quarterly by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for 40 years.
Fall 2009 Highlights:
Face to Face with History
A rare photograph of an African American Union surgeon is discovered among the pension records in the Natinal Archives.
"I Wish to Acknowledge"
Over the years many archivists have helped Pulitzer Prize–winning authors, and less prolific writers research their works. Learn the stories behind the books.
The Congressional Archives
The Center for Legislative Archives maintains the records of both houses Congress, and holds a few surprises as well.
