Travel back in time as this post whisks you through defining moments, from a 1938 perilous escape, to the grandeur and tragedy of the Titanic, to private moments with historical figures such as Alfred Deakin, FDR, and the Dalai Lama. Marvel at manmade wonders such as Mount Rushmore and Brooklyn Bridge Wine Cellars, feel the energy of everyday life in Berlin’s lemonade boy, and the luxury of 1905 Palm Beach, and confront stark moments of history – Apollo 1’s tragedy, the 1975 Welsh referendum, Hillsborough’s disaster. Engage with historical figures from a towering cowboy senator to Nansen at Bergen University, including glimpses into the lives of figures like Göring & Beck, Amelia Earhart, Alan Shepard, and more. Finally, celebrate medical triumphs with the eradication of smallpox before plunging into the Gold Rush chaos of 1949 Shanghai.
