Step into the rooms where early 1900s Pennsylvanians debated their own past and carefully preserved every name, date and memory. History lives in these pages. Papers Read Before the Lancaster County Historical Society, January 5, 1917: History Herself, As Seen in Her Own Workshop (Volume 21, No. 1) gathers formal addresses and research notes from one pivotal meeting of this distinguished society. Drawn from historical society proceedings, it offers a primary source history volume on Lancaster County history and the practice of documenting county historical records at the dawn of modern scholarship. Voices from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, speak directly from the period, capturing how local historians understood their community, its place in Pennsylvania local history, and the wider currents of the American story. For local historians, family history enthusiasts and serious researchers, these Lancaster County Historical Society papers form an indispensable local history collection. The volume preserves references to American genealogy records and observational detail invaluable as a genealogy research resource, especially for those tracing families in Lancaster County Pennsylvania or mapping early 1900s Pennsylvania life more broadly. As a snapshot of historical method in practice, it also holds lasting interest for readers of historiography and students of how the past is curated. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
