Meet the U.S.A.: An Origin Story Told in the Land and the Cultures That Made the United States
We all share the end result of American history: that the story has contrived to place us all here together in this class at this place and time. The place is this very advantageous portion of the world's surface called the United States. The time-line will be in two parts: a summarized scan of time between George Washington's time and our lives in the present; more importantly, a big-picture look at the movement of peoples leading to an origin story for the cultures formed during the North American colonial period.
