I had a pleasant surprise while researching my latest novel, The Spider and the Sparrow. It turns out that a lot of contemporary accounts and images from World War One are no longer copyrighted, so they’re in the public domain. Here are a few pictures I ran across while gathering information for a blogger:
The Spider and the Sparrow will be available next week. It’s available for preorder on Amazon and Deseret Book.
Thanks, Char and Rebecca! It was fun to look at the pictures. Sometimes I get in a rut of just reading for research. And reading for research is important, but looking at pictures can be so valuable too! Char, are you on the blog tour?

Cool! Did they send you a paperback or an ebook? (I’m still waiting for my copies-crossing my fingers they come soon.)
