Try The Making of the Modern World, Parts I and II for free

By on July 20, 2011

Gale/Cengage has just expanded their file, The Making of the Modern World, with a second installment: Part II: 1851-1914, which follows up on the release of Part I: The Goldsmiths’-Kress Collection, 1450-1850.

It’s a collection of monographs, reports, correspondence, speeches, and surveys, including international coverage of social, economic, and business history, as well as political science, technology, industrialization and the birth of the modern corporation. Part II is cross-searchable with Part I of the series, so, combined, these collections provide access to 450 years of world history.

And the best part is that you can try The Making of the Modern World, Parts I and II here for free: just go to this link and enjoy the file until next Tuesday, when another Gale / Cengage file will be free-trialed here.

Cheryl LaGuardia About Cheryl LaGuardia

Cheryl LaGuardia always wanted to be a librarian, and has been one for more years than she's going to admit. She cracked open her first CPU to install a CD-ROM card in the mid-1980's, pioneered e-resource reviewing for Library Journal in the early 90's (picture calico bonnets and prairie schooners on the web...), won the Louis Shores / Oryx Press Award for Professional Reviewing, and has been working for truth, justice, and better electronic library resources ever since. Reach her at claguard@fas.harvard.edu, where she's a Research Librarian at Harvard University.
