 >I&rsquo\;m Gracia and I LOVE HISTORY! I mean REALLY LOVE IT! My goal is t
 hat we can learn and grow together in the fascinating world of American Hi
 story through the ALL-INCLUSIVE HISTORY that you will find on this site. F
 or me\, the real crux of what we know as &ldquo\;American History&rdquo\; 
 is what we are taught about our foundation\, the 17th through 19th centuri
 es. So most history featured on these pages will reflect that time period.
  I have this saying\, &ldquo\;I love the Why. I love beginnings\, and here
  is where we find our beginning. What happened in these years brings us to
  today&rsquo\;s problems.&rdquo\; It all started here and we are going to 
 find out how and why together. I look forward to sharing All-inclusive Ame
 rican History with you..</p>\nhttps://wilbraham.libnet.info/event/16001564
