CTR Review

This thematic CD-ROM encyclopedia presents articles and images on over 700 topics dealing with the history and issues of the U.S. legal system. Coverage begins at the 17th century and is as current as the Clinton impeachment with content including photographs, video, audio clips and primary source documents. Study supports include an illustrated timeline and eight themes for guided research. We found the program keyword searchable and easy to use. This would be a helpful resource for libraries and for history and government classes.
