Wash U Trip



I loved getting to see the rare books collection at the Wash U library. Growing up, I have learned about a lot of those books from history classes, so it was neat getting to see them in person. Out of all of the books we got to see I found the one the human anatomy the most interesting. Taking Book Design this semester has made me really appreciate books like that because of all the work that has to go into making them. The book has beautiful and detailed illustrations. I love how it was interactive. The viewer could open the bodies up to see what was behind certain things. I was able to find some other books like it that I thought I would show as well.
