0.6 Linear Feet (8 items)
Collection comprises a printed 1853 "West of England Pocket Book or Gentleman's Diary with an almanack" presented to Isabella Gardner by her husband in 1852. Gardner filled the volume with routine diary entries, usually briefly mentioning the weather and the health of family members, whether they were any visitors, along with any travel or activities and with whom the family took tea or had dinner.

Several items post-dating the diary were laid-in, including four brief letters to and from family members, a recipe for a throat tonic, a note with dates of ancestors, and a religious flier.

Benjamin Lowy photographs of Iraq, 2003-2008

3 Linear Feet (2 boxes)
The collection consists of thirty-two 9x13 inch untitled digital color inkjet photographs taken by Benjamin Lowy, documenting the U.S. military presence in Iraq from 2003 to 2008. The prints are arranged in two series: Windows and Nightvision. Images in the Windows series were taken from the bulletproof windows of the armored Humvees in which Lowy spent most of his time while on missions in Iraq; they depict street scenes with Iraqi civilians, tanks, soldiers, checkpoints, military impoundments, street life, urban Iraqi culture, and a war-ravaged Iraqi landscape. Taken through U.S. military-issue night vision goggles, photographs in the Nightvision series reveal greenish images of late-night raids, prisoners and soldiers, landscapes, families, women, and street scenes. The images in this collection were published in 2011 as a photobook titled Iraq | Perspectives. Acquired as part of the Archive of Documentary Arts at Duke University.

Iraq | Perspectives I: Windows, 2003-2008 16 prints
Box 1

This series, consisting of 16 color digital inkjet prints, stems from images taken from the bulletproof windows of the armored Humvees in which Lowy spent most of his time while on missions in Iraq. This perspective was necessary since Lowy was unable to tour the streets of Iraq without protection. The Humvee window, evidenced in each image of this subseries, came to represent for Lowy the barrier between the Americans and Iraqis. The images portray not only street scenes with Iraqi civilians, notably Iraqi women and children, but also tanks, soldiers, checkpoints, military impoundments, street life, urban Iraqi culture, and a war-ravaged Iraqi landscape.

Iraq | Perspectives II: Nightvision, 2003-2008 16 prints
Box 2

The images in this series, consisting of 16 color digital inkjet prints, were taken through U.S. military-issue night vision goggles, which Lowy attached to his DSLR camera with a combination of duct tape, dental floss and occasionally chewing gum. The night vision images, with an eerie greenish hue, reveal frightened civilians, abandoned streets, and U.S. soldiers. The images document the impact of war on Iraq. Dominant subjects include families, late-night raids on Iraqi dwellings, interactions between soldiers and prisoners, Iraqi landscapes, and street scenes.

Collection on Cuban migrants in indefinite detention, 1995-1999

0.25 Linear Feet
Cuban people emigrated to the United States as refugees in 1980 during the Mariel Boatlift.

A decade later many were still in federal detention centers awaiting review of their case, and they often wrote to Amnesty International for help. Collection consists largely of unsolicited correspondence from Cuban migrants written to Sarah Town while she interned with Amnesty International's Refugee Office. Acquired as part of the Human Rights Archive at Duke University.
