Untold American History: Discover the Stories You Never Knew

Get ready to explore the forgotten stories of America’s past. Untold American History brings to life strange, exciting, and true tales that many people have never heard before. Imagine a flood of sticky molasses sweeping through the streets of Boston. It sounds like something out of a movie, but it actually happened in 1919.

This is just one of the many surprising events you’ll learn about. You’ll also meet Norton, a man who called himself the “Emperor of the United States” and became a local legend. You’ll dive into the mystery of the lost colony of Roanoke, a settlement that seemingly vanished without a trace. Discover secret societies that worked behind closed doors, learn about the Ghost Army that fooled the enemy in World War II, and hear the stories of brave women in the Wild West who took on incredible challenges. Each story will help you see America’s history in a whole new way.

Here’s just a taste of what’s inside:

  • The spooky meetings of the Hellfire Club
  • The sad and powerful story of Igbo Landing
  • The rise and disappearance of the Roanoke Colony
  • How Jermain Loguen helped enslaved people escape to freedom
  • The funny and strange rules made by Emperor Norton
  • How Native American warriors defeated General Custer’s soldiers
  • The Greenwood district, where African Americans built a strong and successful community before tragedy struck

These stories will take you back in time and help you understand just how rich and interesting America’s history really is. Untold American History is the perfect audiobook for anyone who wants to discover the amazing stories that don’t always make it into the history books.

This is a collection of lesser-known American historical events and figures that broaden the listener's understanding of the American past. There are unique stories such as the Great Molasses Flood of 1919, the mystery of the Roanoke Colony, and the life of Emperor Norton. The stories are presented with enough historical context to be informative while still interesting enough for the general audience. Listeners will likely come away with a sense of surprise and greater curiosity about history beyond what’s taught in standard curricula. And it appeals to both younger listeners and adults. I am not a big fan of history, but I found it interesting, as there is so much more to explore and uncover about the American experience.

This book showed parts of American history I never learned in school. It focused on real stories—some surprising, some sad, and some inspiring. The way it was told made everything feel clear and real, not boring or hard to follow. I felt like I was learning things that actually matter.

There was one story about people whose names are rarely mentioned but who played a big part in shaping the country. That got to me. As someone whose family history often gets overlooked, it made me feel connected in a new way. After listening, I started asking my grandparents more about our past—it made me proud of where I come from.

History lessons put me to sleep in school, so figured giving this audiobook a try couldn’t be bad. And thank goodness! Had nutty stories I’d never heard about that weren’t even mentioned in any of my history books, from kooky emperors to strange floods. Come on, is it even possible that this much history is omitted? The reader had a relaxed feel as well, easy listening while running errands. Decent selection if you enjoy the odd bits of legit knowledge without feeling like you’re doing homework.

Better than my history class, honestly

I picked this up out of curiosity and ended up learning way more than I expected. It dives into parts of American history that don’t usually get much attention, and it made me rethink a few things I thought I knew. The stories are short, surprising, and easy to follow, perfect for reading in chunks. It made history feel less like memorizing dates and more like uncovering real human stories. Great if you like learning the stuff textbooks skip.

I thought I had a decent grasp of American history, but this book showed me how much had been left out—especially the voices and events that don't get much spotlight. Some of these stories were sobering, others inspiring, and a few made me stop and rethink what I thought I knew. It wasn’t political or preachy, just eye-opening in the best way. I walked away with a deeper appreciation for the complexity of America’s past, and a better understanding of how that past still shapes the present.
