Women were also deeply involved in the war, both by supporting the effort with domestic industry as well as becoming more actively involved through spying or even donning men’s clothing and fighti

We Take Nothing by Conquest - a US History textbook, Columbus to Reconstruction

Moreover, none told the story of our history that my students really wanted to hear: the history of African-Americans, of Native Americans, and what life was really like for our ancestors. Followi

“Excellent Unit! Thank you!”
Harassed into leaving England and unhappy with their new home in Holland, the Pilgrims took a literal leap of faith in coming to the New World to begin a new colony where they could practice their particular brand of Puritanism away from constraints of the Anglican Church and the influence of Dutch culture.
