This will tell you all that happened in a particular month of the year. There is a movie review so if you want to take a better look into history. Then there is the speech of the month which shows different speeches written by some of the most famous men in history.
The best part of this site is homework help category. This gives helpful hints on how to write a better history paper. It also gives other websites to help with finding things that are not found on the website.
