It's something many Americans are certain is a solid fact: Columbus discovered America. While he is not with us to prove or disprove this fact, we now know that Columbus just wasn't the guy. First, Columbus never landed on the North American mainland. Second, how can someone "discover" a place that's already home to millions of people? In this lively and engaging book, readers will uncover the truth behind many myths about explorers in the Americas. Accessible text addresses important elementary social studies topics. Vivid images enliven the design, while captions, fact boxes, and a graphic organizer enrich the main content.

Why do we celebrate Columbus Day? Christopher Columbus wasn't the first man to discover America. He wasn't even the first European to set up a town in America. In fact, there were lots of people here before him. Many people think that the first man to explore North America was Leif Erikson. Leif's father was Erik Thorvaldson. He was also known as Erik the Red. Leif Erikson was the oldest son of Erik the Red. He was born around 970. When he was a child, he moved with his parents to Greenland. They lived on a farm at a place called Brattahlid (say brat-a-lid). There Leif grew up learning about farming. He also learned about sailing from his father. Find out about this sailor who may have been the first man to discover America in this 15-minute biography. Ages 8 and up.

About Our Discover America Trekand where it led us. In the fall of 2017, my husband and I finally left on the adventure we had been planning since the previous October when we purchased the 2000 Fleetwood Discovery RV that was to be our home for six weeks. On our RV house, we went on what was to be a wonderful road trip to over sixteen states, most of which I had not visited before. Since my husband had been a professional driver all his working life and had driven to all forty-eight contiguous states, he was at home in all corners of this country. But it was, for the most part, all new to me. We headed first to Pigeon Forge in Tennessee and journeyed onward through Illinois, Iowa, heading for South Dakota, where many points of interest were planned stops. I thoroughly enjoyed De Smet and exploring Laura Ingalls Wilders Historic Homes there. Of course, Mount Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial were unmissable. The natural beauty to be viewed in this area also includes the wonderful landscapes of the Badlands. Visiting the West would not be complete without visiting Custer and the State Park, where many bison may be seen up close, and the town of Cody, founded by Buffalo Bill. All these leading up to the wildlife jewel we were headed toward, Yellowstone. Yellowstone is magnificentmore than what we were expecting. It was huge, wild, and beautiful. Just try to see as much as possible while there. We returned home via the Grand Tetons route, Colorado Springs, and on down south through part of Route 66 by way of Amarillo, Texas; up by Memphis, Tennessee; to Atlanta, Georgia; and on home to Carolina. What a fabulous trip! Read the book to get more details.

On Columbus Day 1997 Ken and Priscilla Rhodes quit their jobs, bought an RV and took off to discover America with a plan to see 50 states in 50 weeks and return to their jobs in a year. Three years later, they hobbled home broke but not broken. Hitch a ride in their backseat for a hilarious, adventurous, and sometimes heartbreaking tour of America. Volume One East coast to West coast covers the frightening first year of quitting work, giving up an income, shopping for an RV, and adjusting to life on the road living in a flimsy tin box on wheels, terrifyingly vulnerable to outside elements like hailstorms, tornadoes and thieves.

In See America First, Marguerite Shaffer chronicles the birth of modern American tourism between 1880 and 1940, linking tourism to the simultaneous growth of national transportation systems, print media, a national market, and a middle class with money and time to spend on leisure. Focusing on the See America First slogan and idea employed at different times by railroads, guidebook publishers, Western boosters, and Good Roads advocates, she describes both the modern marketing strategies used to promote tourism and the messages of patriotism and loyalty embedded in the tourist experience. She shows how tourists as consumers participated in the search for a national identity that could assuage their anxieties about American society and culture. Generously illustrated with images from advertisements, guidebooks, and travelogues, See America First demonstrates that the promotion of tourist landscapes and the consumption of tourist experiences were central to the development of an American identity.
