"The Road from Hell Is Paved with Little Rocks" includes materials from the holdings of the Butler Center for Arkansas Studies and the Little Rock Central High School Historic Site, and this virtual exhibit could not happen without that collaboration.
This project was supported in part by a Digitizing Hidden Special Collections and Archives project grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and Council on Library and Information Resources.
