BLOG.HISTORYSMITHS.COM: 40% Off Warehouse Sale!
Dear Friends,
I have just put all of my history books history books on sale at 40% off! And because the sale price includes tax and shipping, we’re really talking closer to 50% off!
These titles include:
• Books on Judith Sargent Murray ’s letters (18th century women’s rights advocate from Gloucester; I am the first person to publish these)
• Guidebooks of women’s history walking trails in Boston and Salem, MA
Even you aren’t a women’s/American history devote, that’s fine! You probably know someone who is – or who should be.
Perhaps more importantly, these books really should be in the hands of academic and public libraries where people doing research can find them. This information is not available online, and people (like David McCullough and Cokie Roberts) do use my work! Please forward this message to a decision maker at your library.
I have also discounted my EBook on how to create a women’s history trail – a process that applies to any historically themed trail, and one that will benefit any community economically, educationally, and socially.
This book is for historical societies, chambers of commerce, town planning departments, museums – any of the for-profit, nonprofit, and municipal groups that would take part in creating a town trail. (See my article on the economic benefits of creating a history trail economic benefits of creating a history trail
Why am I doing this? Because I have too many boxes in my warehouse/back room and I want this information out there and being used!
So…please take advantage of my temporary insanity and purchase these titles here at 40% off.
This offer is only good through June 30, 2010.
Your colleague,
Bonnie Hurd Smith

Bonnie Hurd Smith
Hi, I’m Bonnie Hurd Smith and I’ve helped dozens of businesses and organizations, and reached hundreds of individuals through my talks, with the message that “history” is not some dead, irrelevant “thing” you go visit in a museum. Instead, for businesses and organizations, history can be a powerful marketing, PR and community outreach tool if you go about it strategically. Personally, history is a source of inspiration like I've never seen. The stories of courage, character, and overcoming obstacles are all around us! Getting involved in history – your own history, your community’s, or things like women’s history, which is my passion, will attract attention, customers, and a high class, trustworthy reputation for your business. And I know those are three things that are always on your mind. But as an individual, if you’re like me, you want to make a difference in the world, and getting involved in history can do that. It’s legacy-building work. It’s deeply satisfying because there are countless stories to uncover, and tell, and learn from, and be inspired by -- and it’s important work – especially for young people who are not being taught history. And here’s my really radical statement. Folks, we have GOT to take history away from the cranky old ladies at historical societies, and we have GOT to take it out of the hands of bad history teachers. Instead, history needs to be in your hands, and in mine, in ways that benefit everyone – including you and your business! Yes, this is big, but I really want you along for the ride! But I know these are new ideas, and so I invite you to visit historysmiths.com where you will find articles, reports, and my blog where I go into a lot more detail. I also hope you will sign up for my ezine, Connections, because I share helpful information about these ideas every week! So I HOPE that I’ve already gotten you to think differently about history. Please just blow up any preconceived notions you might have, and join me on this journey. You do not need a Ph.D. to be part of history. Just the desire. Thanks for stopping by!
