A fabulous history blog

If I had the time, I could probably spend the bulk of the next two days just trawling around the blog Wonders and Marvels. Curated by Vanderbilt professor Holly Tucker, the site features excerpts and tidbits from a wide variety of historical scholars. This morning, I read about the discovery of Pompeii's human remains, midwifery in colonial America, and the myth of Joseph Kennedy, bootlegger.
