P. T. Barnum

Well, the votes are officially in. Melody got an "A" for History I. I feel like I learned a lot, although it went by really fast and there wasn't enough time to dwell or further research anything. But here, as promised, is the research paper on P. T. Barnum. This was, as far as research papers go, a very fun paper to write. Lots of sources (although all of them actually get the majority of their information from his autobiography) and an interesting topic. The one linked to below is without citations (for two reasons: 1) it's a lot easier to read, and 2) citations make it a true research paper that I don't want stolen...:) If, for some odd reason, you want the version with citations, shoot us an email or post a comment!

P. T. Barnum and the Introduction of Spectacular Entertainment

As a side note, I never had any vocal contact with my professor. This class was entirely online, except for the book that I read through and the tests that I took at a campus testing center. I occasionally emailed questions to my professor (usually about guidelines etc...) but did everything else on my own. I still don't even know what he looks like!
