Most of the states along the WRRR have contracted with a professional historian to search through archival collections to identify and catalog their documentary and architectural resources related to the WRRR in that state. This research is then summarized in a report that details the historic route through that state, includes highlights of the documents placed in their historical context, and provides maps and photographs of the historic sites and buildings along the route. |
