Today's History Lesson

The history lesson for today steps back in time to one of the first automobiles, not the very first but the first of its kind. While today's founding does not carry the Made in America label, it certainly had a impact on America still present in the 21st century. As styles and technology evolved, the 'classic' became the 'new' but if you want a 'fun' new Beetle, buy the 'classic'!

Redipuglia, Italy: Memorial is the resting place of 100,000 WWI dead | Human Interest | Scoop.it

A monumental display of history outside of Redipuglia, Italy, is more than just a climb up Monte Sei Busi; it’s a bitter reminder of the Great War. The Military Sacrarium Redipuglia is about an hour’s drive from Aviano Air Base. Its grand steps symbolize the hard-fought battles soldiers endured during World War I to maintain control of the mountain’s summit. Inscribed on plaques are the names of places considered to be the worst battles fought. [...]

Today's History Lesson

In the 21st century, on the average not much thought is given to how one might travel from one place to another. Automobiles are commonplace with many households making claim to more than one. Then, there are the boats, buses, trains and planes, as well as the recreational vehicles. Travel has not always been so convenient. In fact, picture no more than feet, horse and wagon.
