1. I researched Deadwood, South Dakota. There was a lot of information. I did not know that so much of the gambling revenue went into the restoration of historical sites. Deadwood has always been one of my favorite cities because of the history. I love the cemetery! It brings history to life for me - real people with real graves. When I was younger it brought home that all we learn in the history of our country is about real people. Pretty cool!

3. First of all no PB Publisher available in the "Select a Field" drop down box. I selected a state and then limited it to history. I found mostly book reviews. Oops I was in the student portion not the ebooks. I found American History I did a search with in a search and found good information about Nebraska, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Nebraska Univerisity Press, and the Transcontinental Railroad.
Well as I am a week behind and I am going to be finished with this assignment. I have my awesome 4 1/2 year old grandson with me this week and we have projects to do. He has been an angel while I worked. He is doing his own research on Samuri Power Rangers, he is quite qualified to join their quest.
Did you Know - "Wild West" I found it interesting that Oklahoma was called Indian when it was a territory in 1857.
