American History for Kids - A Fifteen Part Series

American History for Kids is a 15 part series which reveals some of the most significant developments in our country's past. Whether building the first transcontinental railroad, riding the Pony Express, or traveling the Mississippi on a cotton-bearing steamboat, American history is relived by children who tell how everyday people in colonial America pushed back the frontier; what transpired as the Lewis and Clark Expedition explored the Louisiana Purchase; and the griefs and the glories of wagon trains bound for the Oregon Trail. Others recount how slaves labored for a plantation society; how bone-tired cowboys herded mighty throngs of Texas longhorns north to Kansas; and the desperately fought bloody Civil War; what brought engineers to dam mighty torrents with dikes, levees, and locks. This vivid series captures the minds and the moods of our nation's rich and varied history.
