The Puzzle Arbor Trivia Collection
U.S. History Trivia Challenge
300 Questions with Answers and Fascinating Facts
American history is full of stories. These 300 questions in 30 rounds begin with Indigenous America and the first colonies, then follow independence, the Constitution, westward expansion, the Civil War and Reconstruction, immigration, industry, reform, two world wars, civil rights, the Cold War and the race to space. Music, sports, books and historic places have rounds of their own.
The questions mix familiar milestones with less familiar people and details. The wording stays family-friendly and is honest about slavery, forced removal, discrimination and war. Every answer has a short explanation and a source reference, and an optional question to talk over follows each round.
Details may change before publication, and the finished cover and pages may differ from what’s shown here.
