This guide to the Joseph Downs Collection of Manuscripts and Printed Ephemera, named for Winterthur's first curator, provides descriptive information for the primary research material held in the collection. The Downs Collection acquires materials from the mid seventeenth century through the twentieth century that document American lifestyles, concentrating on the domestic scene and activities within the household and art. It includes such items as diaries, business accounts of craftsmen whose products decorated dwelling houses, family papers, tax records, construction of homes, artists' sketchbooks, wills and household inventories, children's toys and games, and scrapbooks and journals. Items from individuals famous in American history rest alongside materials from people who led routine lives yet still contributed to the development of America. An extensive microform collection, including copies of material owned by other public repositories and private individuals, supplements the manuscript holdings. Hardcover is un-jacketed.

Back in 2007 I released a course called "Creating Fat Content". It went on to become my most popular course ever. This book evolved from that original course, but has been fully updated to reflect the huge changes made by Google in recent years. Despite these changes, one thing has not changed over the years. Google STILL want to show the best web pages to their users. But what constitutes the "best"? The answer is quite simple - the best content is the content that the visitors want to see. Not very helpful? Then read this book. It's packed with advice on what Google actually want, and how you can deliver it with a simple mindset shift - by thinking in terms of "share-bait". That is, content that your visitors want to share with their friends, family and followers. Share-bait will put you on the right path to delivering content that keeps your visitors and search engines happy. It will give you an unfair advantage as your content has a better chance of not only ranking well, but sticking in the search engines. Creating Fat Content is a book packed with ideas, tips and strategies, for creating the most captivating, inspiring and fascinating content for your web site. By keeping your visitors happy, you won't have to worry about search engine algorithm changes, or Google slaps. The search engines will want to show your content to their users.
