Hi all:
Finished some movies,I am of curiosity that what is U.S.A history like?Through the english study,I have learned something of them.
Recently I searched some infomation by google.Know some more important periods and big events.But these are only some segmentations.Can you give me some information,or website,materials about your concretely history from 1776.
Now I am reading something about your 44 presidents.So many heroes among them touched me.

History is funny . . . very open to interpretation. I could list a few books for you to read and some people would agree that they are great reads, but others would be furious because they give a slanted view.

It's too broad a topic for one source, you might as well start with the History Channel for videos and check Amazon and search US History for some suggestions on a topic, and read the recommendations.

Good luck.
