Some say she was the "original blogger."I don't know that I'd disagree after following a trail of links and pausing my travels at the My Day Project. It is a comprehensive collection of Eleanor Roosevelt's My Day newspaper articles from 1936 to 1962, with day by day links that you can browse through by year & month, or explore via several sites that have sifted through them with a particular focus in mind. Personally, I like flipping through the diary as it was written. I'm in no rush but for those more interested in topics:There is the White House Historical Society My Day: Eleanor Roosevelt Chronicles Life and Work in the White House. With several themes as well as audio recordings.
A PBS site with selected entries for reading/ downloading that focuses on
key events race issues women's issues
