History comes alive in the stories and adventures of explorers and pioneers who saw in America the chance to live a dream—to freely worship God, to have the chance to own land, and the search for wealth and opportunities. It is also the story of cultures that at times cooperated or clashed, as well as distant rulers and countries who saw a chance to expand their power through conflict or treaty.
