CHNM Receives Grant from NEH for Papers of the War Dept., 1783-1800
Dr. Christopher Hamner and the Center for History and New Media received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to fund the ongoing documentary editing project Papers of the War Department, 1783-1800. The project, a digital archive that restores the collection lost in the November 1800 fire that destroyed the War Office, was also designated one of the NEH’s “We the People” programs, recognizing work with special significance to the study and teaching of American history.
