The Lettered Past

The Lettered Past is an educational history club. Each month its creator researches a story from the past and writes it up as a letter, complete with the sources used. Three surprises chosen to fit the theme come along, picked from options like a map, a recipe, stickers, an old photograph, a bookmark, a primary source, an art print, a craft, a playlist, further reading ideas or junk journaling paper.

It costs $11 a month with shipping included, for members in the US and abroad. Join before the month ends to get the next letter, which is mailed mid-month. Cancel whenever you like.

For curious readers and history buffs.
