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.

Anne Frank

Anne Frank (May 1942)

Annelies Marie Frank was born on June 12, 1929 in Frankfurt am Main in Weimar Germany. During her life, she would become one of the most recognized Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Known for her creative writing, her diary became one of the world's most read books. Anne Frank died of typhus at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in late March 1945 at the age of 15.
