is like exploring your grandpa’s attic and finding a corner under the eaves stacked high and deep with letters, diaries, old photographs, military histories, an 1878 issue of the American Journal of Mathematics, and a review of Corporation Finance and Accounting by Harry C. Bentley.
Searching through JSTOR’s Arts & Sciences Collections will also unearth an article on the various dialects of slave workers on a Cuban coffee plantation in 1790, an image of a woman traveler and geographer in 1897, or the rate of turnover in the American labor force of the 1960s.
