The inspiration of Nancy Drew
The Daily Telegram
Nancy Drew, the intrepid teenage detective, came on the scene in the 1930’s when opportunities for girls were limited. She was able to do anything she set her mind to.
Growing up in the 1950’s, Nancy was a role model as well an inspiration. These books were a way to escape the mundane life of school and chores. At some point I decided to read all the Nancy Drew books, around 50 published back then. The library had a limited amount but I would faithfully visit weekly to see if any new ones had come in. Her books were treasured birthday presents.

“A more intelligent way is to pose new questions. Take one example: the 19th century read fifth century Thucydides writing the great historian of the Peloponnesian war for insights into politics and strategy. In the 20th century, we experienced the effects of total warfare. Suddenly historians were paying more attention to those passages where Thucydides describes the psychological and moral deterioration that results from prolonged warfare. Nobody made anything up information for both points of view has always been there. That makes Thucydides a great historian. Each age has simply keyed in on passages that were more relevant to their lived experience.”
