Writing with Scissors: American Scrapbooks from the… por Ellen Gruber Garvey

I enjoyed reading about how and why early scrapbooks came about and how Mark Twain developed a self-pasting scrapbook. I enjoyed the chapters where scrapbook examples were discussed as examples of what the author wanted to convey. When we got to the Civil War scrapbooks, I thought the tone changed a bit and it wasn't as enjoyable for me.

The subject matter was interesting, but the font was very small and it made it tedious to read.
