Keyhole to History

 

The Keyhole to History program includes 52 approximately one-minute audios relating to events of the American Revolution which were developed by the Sons of the American Revolution.  The audios were prepared by Don Blair, Hope Byrnes, and Ann Corcoran.  Each episode relates historical information from a specific week of the year and all episodes provide historical information about the American Revolution.

The Texas Society, Sons of the American Revolution would like to encourage the widespread use of the Keyhole to History audios.  They can be used as part of a morning broadcast in schools, played in the classroom as a learning aid, and made available as a resource in library learning centers.
