For the average person, most of the American history that he or she
knows comes from facts taught to them in school to prepare them for
their state mandated tests. That's not the fault of their teachers
who were just carrying out the directives of their employers. But
it's also a fact that a great deal of that content that they were
teaching is dry and boring. However, as in every aspect of life,
there is always another story behind each major event. The story of
America is interesting and exciting, but it's those lesser known
parts of our history that make it special. Even though in most
cases, the names and events in the book will be recognizable, most
of the stories about them will be new to the reader. If you're a
young teacher, perhaps you'll find some material to help you get
through those less-than-exciting areas of your textbook. If you
hated history as a student, maybe you'll find some of these tales
entertaining. For those of you who are history buffs, hopefully
you'll come across a few things that are new to you.
