Story0
In the gold rush era of Virginia City, Montana, crime was afoot and justice shaky. Lawlessness ran amok in the form of gamblers, saloonkeepers, miners, dance hall girls, and road agents - outlaws who ambushed travelers on the road for a chance to steal precious gold. Of all the road agents, Henry Plummer was their king and elected sheriff. Plummer’s notorious road-agent band terrorized the highways until a group of ordinary citizens resolved to take the responsibility of social governance into their hands.

Story0
An eminent scholar finds a new American history in the Hispanic past of our diverse nation. The United States is still typically conceived of as an offshoot of England, with our history unfolding east to west beginning with the first English settlers in Jamestown. This view overlooks the significance of America's Hispanic past. With the profile of the United States increasingly Hispanic, the importance of recovering the Hispanic dimension to our national story has never been greater. This absorbing narrative begins with the explorers and conquistadores who planted Spain's first colonies in Puerto Rico, Florida, and the Southwest.

Story0
This is volume 3 of 27 in The American Nation: A History, edited by Albert Bushnell Hart, Professor of History at Harvard University. This volume begins with the detailed narrative of the founding and development of the communities now included within the United States of America, and the story necessarily goes back to the discovery of the American islands and continents. Professor Bourne in his earlier chapters summarizes and restates, with many original conclusions, the controverted points with regard to the discovery of America.

Yellowstone is America's premier national park. Today Yellowstone is often a byword for conservation, natural beauty, and a way for everyone to enjoy the great outdoors. But it was not always this way.

Fray Ramón Pané fue probablemente el primer europeo en aprender una lengua indígena americana, el taíno, que se hablaba en la isla La Española, a la que acompañó a Cristóbal Colón en su segundo viaje al nuevo mundo. Cuando tras haber pasado 26 años en aquellas tierras desconocidas vuelve a su Barcelona natal, lo hace con un impresionante legado: la historia del mayor descubrimiento de la humanidad.Su llegada a la isla de La española junto con los aventureros bajo el mando de Cristóbal Colón, se constituiría en una de las mayores gestas conocidas por el hombre, pero también en el comienzo del sometimiento de voluntades por la fuerza.
