American Journeys contains more than 18,000 pages of eyewitness
accounts of North American exploration, from the sagas of Vikings in
Canada in AD1000 to the diaries of mountain men in the Rockies 800
years later.
Read the words of explorers, Indians, missionaries, traders and
settlers as they lived through the founding moments of American
history. View, search, print, or download more than 150 rare books,
original manuscripts, and classic travel narratives from the library
and archives of the Wisconsin Historical Society.
To get started, simply select an activity on the toolbar above.
Funded by the U.S. Institute of Museum & Library Services and by private
donors, American Journeys is a collaborative project of the Wisconsin
Historical Society and National History Day. It's created for students
exploring National History Day's 2004 theme, "Exploration, Encounter &
Exchange" and everyone else who loves American history.
