America at 250, Episode 1: "We Begin."

Historian Jim Ambuske, Ph.D. specializes in 18th Century studies, and the American Revolution specifically, so I could think of no more appropriate guest to have on the podcast to dissect the Declaration of Independence as an artifact of its time and place.

This is the first episode of a special season of the Everything is a Primary Source where, in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, American pop culture will not only be examined for historical value, but for connection to the founding of the country in July of 1776.

Teaching resources and supplements available soon at everything-history.com/america250

This episode is brought to you by iCivics and their new educational game, Investigation Declaration.
