Connor's "Extraordinary" Idea

I had an idea yesterday:

Today we look upon the past and think "What must it have been like". Take for instance
The American Revolutionary War, the records we have, we have paintings and engravings, but no photography. Though I am not an optimist in this area, with our rapidly advancing technology people can look back at this era in a different way. There has never before been a period in history so well recorded, but perhaps the trick is that people enjoy not knowing...
