David M asked:


I don’t want to read a textbook or a 1000 page biography. Is there a decent size book that covers the beginning of US History? Any recommendations would be appreciated, and it should also be something that is not outdated.

As the question says, in your opinion, what were the most important 200 years of history and why between 753 BC to 1453 AD?

I hope someone can help me. I need to find out the history of Virginia Slims Cigarettes. Can anyone help me? The only thing that shows up is Wikipedia, but that isn’t a reliable source.

Does anyone know where I can look? Or perhaps what I can search under? Or where I should search?

Sofi asked:


My boyfriend is starting to look for colleges (finally) and we’re trying to find something close together. I’m going to the University of Iowa for a Creative Writing Major, and I know they have History Majors available there, but does anyone know how this program ranks compared to other colleges’?
He’s mostly interested in Current World History, if you can major in such thing, but if not he’s pretty much stuck on history in general.
So. What are the best colleges in America for a History Major, and what are the best ones close to the University of Iowa?
