The two men were drawn to each other immediately and became fast friends for the rest of their lives.

[1] After the formation of the Confederate States of America, Davis appointed Mann, an experienced diplomat, as a commissioner to Europe. Mann left ...

In August 1619, a pirate ship, the White Lion, stopped at Jamestown and traded twenty-some captive Africans for food. The Africans were treated as indentured servants and soon released.

Last year The New York Times declared that the arrival of the captives in Virginia was the true beginning of America an America the Times characterized as a slavocracy.

This entire year, Ive been a vagabond, but you, too, have been on a journey, away from just about everything youve known, into the vaguest of futures, and were just getting started. Steered by obscured hands, were whipped around blind bends, towards a reality we have no part in shaping.

Theres a ketchup squeeze bottle as well, so at least hotdogs are served. With a bag of potato chips, its a fine meal. The ...
