Author: Adrian Finucane
Abstract: In June 2022, 16 participants in the NEH Summer Institute for Higher Education Faculty titled The Revolution in Books spent three weeks at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton learning about printing in the period of the American Revolution. They heard from experts about the history of print, gained hands-on experience at making paper, printing, and binding books, and reflected on how they might teach about books and print in their own classrooms. In this conference, they present their lesson plans and ideas about how to communicate to students and the public about the history of printing.
