Another Teenager! Cleopatra was 17, then there's Joan of Arc, and Michael Farragut was prize captain at 11, I read. If I were ever, in my declining years, to be able to teach American History, I'd have teenage studenit 'write a book' using members of the community to take us from the Bering Land Bridge Crossing (@10,000) years ago, to 50 years after settlement on Mars. This would teach students (use 'Timetables of History, they will do like the eldrs for a time period) and we would put all on YouTube, with one-page summarieson a membership site, training all kinds of schools to do the same. We'd embody the Roseto Effect, build community. On Wikipedia you'll learn that they had NO HEART ATTACKS as long as they had community.
