In partnership with the Artist Book Foundation, The NSCDA published a book titled, Great American Treasures: Women Preserving History since 1891. This publication is focused on the more than 60 historic places and monuments that form The NSCDA’s museum alliance, Great American Treasures (GAT). For more than a century, The NSCDA has led the preservation of these treasures as vehicles for understanding and appreciating four centuries of American history.
The publication drew upon the built environment and material culture of the properties, monuments and their geographic and social context. The text provides readers with not only an understanding of more than a century of the NSCDA’s preservation efforts but also a window into the power of historic places to connect us to our past.
Great American Treasures: Women Preserving History since 1891 is published as one of The NSCDA’s initiatives to honor the nation’s 250th anniversary of independence from Great Britain. The book is available for sale now!
