The author at his desk…

Sorry for the delay on part 2 of my “I’ve been busy…at the Portage!” posts. At the moment I’ve got my (ever-so-stylish) editor hat on—and hands full—as I put the final touches on the layout of the next Jonathan Clark House newsletter.

The image on today’s post is an old CHH favorite: [Editor], daguerreotype with added color highlights c.1855 (slightly cropped, and color adjusted), Smithsonian American Art Museum, Gift of Charles Isaacs, (link), Creative Commons CC0 license. As always here at CHH, click to open larger image in new window and click the links to go to the original sources for more information.

Thanks for reading! Back soon with fresh content…
