Quote:

Take a look at the last century through arguably the best way possible, through the photograph. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words and these pictures truly are worth the time to click through. If you were alive when these photos were taken, you will know exactly what the emotion was like in our nation at that time. See Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island . . . the Wright Brothers fly . . . building the Empire State Building . . . a Depression-era soup line . . . Omaha Beach . . . the mushroom cloud . . . Lyndon Johnson taking the Presidential oath . . . a young marine in Da Nang . . . footprints on the Moon . . . war in the Persian Gulf. Some of the images captured here will take your breath away.

''The world seems a colder place without her and it is natural that we should feel a sense of loss,'' he said. (Link to complete article and related stories.)
