"Out of Door Book" First Look & Introduction
1Visual Description: A woman dressed in pink sits and faces the camera. Her brown hair has been decorated haphazardly with pink and red thread flowers. Her outfit’s meant to evoke the idea of an Edwardian spring, or perhaps to suggest an escapade through a flower garden some time long-ago. Blue-rimmed eyeglasses help her to see as she reads from an old, red-colored book in her hands. Behind her are two wooden bookshelves filled with a variety of literature.

Sometimes people believed things we may find abhorrent, or which turned out to be false at a later date. Explore stories that have helped to shape the human experience with me, as we trudge through the influences, some good and some abysmal, that have shaped our culture. In this video, I take a first look at "Out of Door Book", which was edited by a woman named Eva March Tappan in 1907. Thank you for listening to Out of Door Book with me!
