Complete U.S. History 1500-1895 3 CD-ROM Set (Jewel Case)

In Founding of America, experience the true colonial experience by role-playing four different characters with unique backgrounds and goals in life as Americans. The role-playing simulation covers American history from 1630 through 1820, and the decisions you make as your chosen character are based on real American historical challenges of the time period. You decide the fate of your character and how he or she responds to historical events, such as the Revolutionary War, the Boston Tea Party, and the War of 1812.
