Yeah, it was required reading where I went to school in NY.

The way our history requirements are written (for homeschooling, to comply with state standards) we must include US and PA history in grades 1-6. The PA stuff is easy since we live in historically significant area with lots of sites and museums. We've studied the Revolutionary war pretty extensively and will be moving on to civil war stuff soon ("what's so civil about war anyway?")

I'm excited to go to OBX so we can include some history stuff that's out of our area. Roanoke (lost colony) specifically, but also the Wright bros museum and stuff.
