United States History

THE GREAT SULTANA DISASTER
One of the greatest maritime disasters in United States history is not widely known within U.S. borders, and is often overshadowed by events at the time.

THE PETTICOAT REVOLUTION
1916 America was not a time when women were known to have garnered political influence or power, but one such clever revolution took place in Oregon, only a few years after women had achieved the right to vote.

THE GREAT CINCINNATI ESCAPE
In 19th century America, there were many daring tales of slaves escaping to secure their freedom and livelihood, but no attempt was quite as audacious as the escape of Lewis Williams.

THE OTHER CONSPIRATORS
The assassination of US President Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865 by John Wilkes Booth is a well known event in history, however he was not the only target of the wide ranging conspiracy on that fateful night.
