Independence Day

What a great day for a history teacher to start a blog! After reading other blogs, I have decided to venture forth with this "new" technology to better reach my main audience...the students of MHS.

This is a day for lingering over the newspapers, my favorite being The New York Times, reading "The Radicalism of the American Revolution," a text for my summer course (more on that later), and of course, viewing fireworks as recommended by John Adams back in 1776.

Enjoy the beach and the cookouts but keep in mind why we celebrate the day.
