HISTORY SHORT ESSAY
While it would be much better to visit historic sites in person, the reality is that we don’t have unlimited time and budgets for such a project J, so we shall use the web resources provided by the National Park Service instead. Your job is to visit the below NPS site of your choice from the list below and take a look at the different links/buttons for that site, particularly the historical information, virtual tour, park programs, and visual aids, if any. After spending a bit of time looking, think about the following overall questions and craft a short essay response (1 page) that addresses these questions:
