Summary

For anyone who's ever nodded off in history class or gotten lost amidst a commotion of confusing names, dates, and other incidentals— it's Captain History to the rescue! Flanked by his two wise-cracking sidekicks, Elmo and Nero, Captain History makes learning United States history fun and entertaining. From the American Revolutionary origins of the modern-day potato chip to fascinating cultural facts and historic profiles of the famous and the infamous, this is a history class that the whole family can enjoy! Adding to the fun are narrators Gary Owens—deemed "the Babe Ruth of Radio"—and the iconic Mel Blanc, voice of Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and dozens of other classic cartoon characters.
