I'm am always on the lookout for academic journal articles that are accessible to high school students, and I just found a great one.

It is about the real cause of Mary Ingalls' blindness, and how they went about determining it.  It was published in the journal Pediatrics, but it shows how one can use primary historical documents in research.  It would be a great add to an American history course or a biology course.
