Synopsis

This illustrated nonfiction series is a rollicking read through the
fascinating, the horrible, the absolutely awesome, and the positively wacky world of American history.

In the 16th and 17th centuries, more and more Europeans came to America. Some sought freedom, but everbody wanted real estate: the French and Spanish, who fought over Florida; the English who landed in Jamestown, Virginia; the Pilgrims and Puritans who settled New England; the Dutch who thrived in New Amsterdam (New York). These colonists were here to stay--and the Native
Americans, who were already living here, did everything they could to survive.
