National Geographic Timeline of American History: The British Colonies covers the fascinating timeline of the American colonies by looking at not only the original 13 British Colonies but also the French, Spanish, and Mexican pieces of the country, as well as the surrounding colonial world of Canada, the Maritimes, and the Caribbean. This book establishes how Colonial America was an important part of the world system, due to trade links-the famous triangular trade-mercantilism, and during the Seven Years War. Religious issues were important, and key events include the Great Awakening, which sparks a discussion of Protestant and Catholic world zones. The What If? section considers how history might have unfolded differently if Wolfe had lost and the French had held Canada.

History

This inspiring science book from National Geographic illustrates the quest towards the future of technological development. Transistors are a vital part of almost every electronic device we use today. Tiny transistors joined together as integrated circuits are used in all our powerful computers. The story behind the invention of the transistor traces advances in science and math from the earliest mechanical calculators used thousands of years ago to the breakthrough invention of the solid-state amplifier by Bell Labs in the 1940s. The strong personalities, fortunate accidents, and challenging research behind these advances bring science to life in Digital Revolution. Glen Phelan's lively text examines the complex history of the tiny transistors that have come to power our modern electronic world.

Hispanic America (National Geographic Timelines)

National Geographic Timeline of American History: Hispanic America covers the fascinating timeline of Hispanic Americans in both North America and South America, tracing their history from early Spanish influence on the continent through modern immigration and into the present. Information covered includes a discussion of the Spanish vice-royalties, background on Peru and Mexico, a feature on Simon Bolivar, the expansion into California, and the history of the California missions. The history of the Mexican War is explored from the Hispanic perspective, broadening the conventional view of that key period in history. The Spanish-American War is also covered in detail. Modern times events and issues include a look at land claims, influence from Puerto Rico and Cuba, and how Hispanics have become the largest minority. The What If? section considers how history might have unfolded differently if California had remained part of Mexico.

Biographies

National Geographic Timeline of American History: Native America covers the fascinating timeline of Native Americans in both North America and South America, tracing their history from their original habitation of the continents to modern times, with a focus on Native American and European first contact and its aftermath. The book will look at the different ecological zones Indians lived in and how that affected their culture and historical change. It will examine the movement of peoples, wars with Europeans, Cimmeron communities, and the American Indian Movement. A look at modern days includes the formation of Indian casinos, pow-wows, and an examination of unresolved legal issues. One key nodal point for the book is the Trail of Tears and how the Cherokee effort to assimilate was not supported by Washington and Andrew Jackson. The What If? section considers how history might have unfolded differently if President Martin Van Buren had succeeded in protecting the Indians.

Crawdad Creek

There's always something happening at Crawdad Creek. That's what Lizzie and Michael call the stream that runs behind their house. Come pan for gold, hunt for fossils, find and arrowhead in the mud or a crayfish under a stone. Watch whirligig beetles and water striders skate across the water, teasing the fish below, and count the turtles sunning themselves on moss-covered logs. Follow tracks along the bank, then sit in quiet amazement as deer, raccoons, and other animals visit the creek. There's a wild and beautiful world here awaiting to be discovered. Take the time to look!
