These immersive, multimedia, place-based stories chronicle the World War I U.S. Army service of my great-grandfather Patrick Flanagan (1980-1928). I still have two and a half more chapters to go. I created these versions of Patrick’s WWI story using Google Earth Web, a platform I heavily teach for my work as the Digital Scholarship Librarian at a university (see my free instruction guide). Follow my blog for announcements when the rest of chapter two and the next two chapters get published.
