I learned many things from the lost museum. It is a great historical tool in my opinion because of the fact that it shows what people were interested in back than and all the types of things that were on the rise. Such as science and music and entertainment. One can spend hours upon hours on this website and learn many things in a new sort of fun way. I also learnt that Barnum’s museum was burnt on purpose which is really a shame due to the fact that history lost so many interesting artifacts. A weakness of the website is the fact that one cannot fully see and zoom in to all of the exhibits in the museum.
I learned that Tom Thumb was made in to a class act and performed all over the world under the supervision on Barnum. Which leads to tell me that entertainment in the 19th century was an important thing in society and people really enjoyed, singing,dancing and music much like todays age.
