Most documents are reproduced in their actual sizes for you to touch and explore over and over. Transcripts and translations of difficult to read documents are provided for better understanding. Libeleh Lesson primary sources encourage critical thinking and analysis, and augment retention of information in a variety of interdisciplinary disciplines.
