Before railroads, Montana ran on river time — and no one read the water like Grant Marsh. The riverboat captain pushed the Yellowstone farther than any steamer had dared, then raced wounded soldiers from Little Bighorn 700+ miles to Bismarck in 54 hours. A frontier legend, one snag-choked mile at a time.

Let's just continue to punish the victims while we look away from the villains - what could go wrong?

A frantic 911 call. A body on a lonely Billings road. A brother’s drug-induced “confession” that led nowhere. Nearly 50 years later, the killing of 21-year-old Ruth Lori Ballew remains Yellowstone County’s oldest unsolved murder—and someone out there may still know why.

On this day, August, 1959, a monster earthquake swallowed Montana campgrounds whole — burying 28 people, birthing a brand-new lake in minutes, and rewriting the geology books forever. The mountain literally fell. Find out how survivors escaped… and what still haunts that canyon today.

The Trump regime is a double-edged sword with corruption on one blade and mendacity on the other.

i feel confident in recommending nick cullather's "The Hungry World: America’s Cold War Battle against Poverty in Asia" as the best overall history of the green revolution that i've read over the course of my research for the green revolution part of my WIP industrial ag mega-zine.

it provides an excellent history of what happened between the US and India, and the complicated story of the green revolution's outcomes.

in the intro, he writes that he set out to try and tell the story of the green revolution, and as soon as he started doing research, he realized that almost every part of the standard story became revised in his mind. this is my experience as well.

In 1970, a Montana fighter jet fell into an unrecoverable spin, its pilot ejected — and the empty aircraft calmly leveled off, glided itself down, and belly-landed alone in a snowy wheat field near Big Sandy. Engine idling, radar still sweeping, no one aboard. One of the strangest true stories in Cold War aviation.

In 1948 the US run military government of South Korea ruthlessly killed thousands of people on Jeju Island for the crime of being physically near some communists.

Before Montana’s silver could reach a smelter, it needed fire tamed inside brick domes. Meet the beehive charcoal kilns of Canyon Creek — built in 1881, tended by Italian colliers, and capable of turning entire forests into fuel for a booming mining district. Discover the ruins that still stand near Glendale today.

As I'm working on getting the next episode ready to release, if you haven't already, be sure to check out my conversation with Tony Williams about his recently released book, Divided Over the Declaration! #history #POTUS #USHistory #America250 https://www.presidenciespodcast.com/the-lasting-debate-over-the-declaration-how-changing-interpretations-shaped-american-identity-with/

US President Rutherford B. Hayes used the word "sedulously" in his first State of the Union address in 1877. I had to look it up.

I will work sedulously to bring this word back from the brink of extinction!

(and let us wax nostalgically for the days when Presidents had above-average vocabularies)

(and how about those days when "the United States" were referred to in the plural?)

Watching an hour long PBS documentary about Patsy Mink, a breakthrough feminist politician from Hawaii who was the first woman of color (Japanese-American) elected to Congress.

I don't really know much about her except that she ran for President, so I'm curious to learn more.

A Billings banker dreamed bigger than Billings itself. In 1916 he hired the architect of Canberra to design a utopian “Garden City” on the prairie west of town—circular boulevards, a grand rail hub, room for 100,000 people. Then the railroad went to Laurel instead. Today only a road sign called Mossmain remains.
