As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, America at 250: 6 Courses That Help Tell the Story invites you to explore the people, ideas and cultural forces that have shaped the nation. This series of pre-recorded courses traces the sweep of American history — from the international stakes of the Revolution to the restless ambition of Theodore Roosevelt, from the artistry of John James Audubon to the rock and roll that rewired American culture.
