Welcome to the Milestone Documents blog site, a group blog featuring contributions by scholars and historians on the topic of primary sources. Our goal with this blog is to entertain, enlighten, and engage readers who are interested in historical primary sources. You’ll find posts about key documents from history, posts that tie important documents to current events, and posts that talk about using primary sources in the classroom.

Most of the contributors to this blog have written articles for the “Milestone Documents” series of reference books published by Schlager Group; you can find some of those articles in your local library, assuming your library has purchased the titles, or you can find them at www.MilestoneDocuments.com, where they are available on an individual basis for a small fee. As we publish new titles in the series, the articles within those titles will be posted at the e-commerce site.
