William L. Clements Library

The University of Michigan’s Clements Library has recently made available a digital database of photo postcards that depict over 100 years of the state’s history. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

The start of the Revolutionary War, or American War of Independence, can be traced to one manuscript. WEMU’s Caroline MacGregor talks to University of Michigan William L. Clements Library curator, Cheney Joshua Schopieray about the original draft orders of British Army officer Thomas Gage and the escalating tensions preceding the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775.
