[LM_NET] February Highlights with Primary Sources

[Carole Bos <bosc@GVSU.EDU>]

During February we commemorate African-American Heritage Month and recall numerous 
world events:  Explosion of the shuttle Columbia, Parliament's abolishment of the 
slave-trade law, opening of King Tut's tomb and FDR's Executive Order 9066 
(resulting in Japanese-American internment camps).  Learn the details of those, and 
other events, in this summary of February Highlights.

Also provided is a listing of topics (which link to primary sources) for slavery, 
World War I and World War II (with separate sections for the war in Europe and the 
war in the Pacific).
