Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Museum of American History, Founded 1856: Illustrated Handbook The Chicago Historical Society stands in the southwest corner of Lincoln Park at the intersection of Clark Street and North Ave nue, just fifteen minutes from the Loop or business section of the city. Facing the spreading lawns of Lincoln Park and the blue waters of Lake Michigan in the distance, this Georgian building of red brick and white limestone commands a view of the famous St. Gaudens' statue of Abraham Lincoln. The Chicago Historical Society is served by all Clark Street car lines and by the Broadway line on State Street, both to and from the Loop. Northbound buses stop at Burton Place for visitors to the Historical Society, southbound buses at North Avenue, and elevated trains at Sedgwick Street. The building of the Society is located at the point where Dearborn Street enters Lincoln Park. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: The Smithsonian Institution has been America's museum since 1846. What do its vast collections -- from the ruby slippers to a piece of Plymouth Rock, first ladies' gowns to patchwork quilts, a Model T Ford to a customized Ford LTD low rider -- tell Americans about themselves? In this lavishly illustrated guide to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, Steven Lubar and Kathleen M. Kendrick tell the stories behind more than 250 of the museum's treasures, many of them never before photographed for publication. These stories not only reveal what America as a nation has decided to save and why but also speak to changing visions of national identity. As the authors demonstrate, views of history change over time, methods of historical investigation evolve and improve, and America's understanding of the past matures. Shifts in focus and attitude lie at the hearth of Legacies, which is organized around four concepts of what a national museum of history can be: a treasure house, a shrine to the famous, a palace of progress, and a mirror of the nation. Thus, the museum collects cherished or precious objects, houses celebrity memorabilia, documents technological advances, and reflects visitors' own lives. Taking examples from science and technology, politics, decorative arts, military history, ethnic heritage, popular culture and everyday life, the authors provide historical context for the work of the Smithsonian and shed new light on what is important, and who is included, in American history. Throughout its history, Lubar and Kendrick conclude, the museum has played a vital role in both shaping and reflecting America's sense of itself as a nation.
