History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

NOTE:
You may click any picture in this blog to view it on its' own screen.

Southwick House

From Southwick House, pictured above on D-Day June 5, 1944, General Dwight D. Eisenhower gave the order to launch the D-Day invasion. Located near Portsmouth, England, the mansion served as the Allied Expeditionary Force advance headquarters.
