Introducing a brand new way to tell your friends about Our History Project. To make it easier to find us by finding us by what we do and provide "History Podcast". Podcasting history has been a great tool for us to reach not only the historical community but also the classroom. We have had a vast number of educators bring our History Podcast to their classroom and because of it we have been invited to speak in 4 States so far.
We will continue to bring you quality content and stories of Our America. If you know a history lover send them to www.ourhistoryproject.com/.org/.net/.us or now to www.history-podcast.com .

OHP Radio presents John Ledyard - History Podcast
OHP Radio presents John Ledyard - an Audio Book Presentation
He was 10 feet tall, could run faster, walk further, swim deeper, climb higher than any man alive now or has ever been. He sailed the seven seas, explored unknown regions, walked across most of the world and met the famous and native alike. A pre-curser and idol to Lewis and Clark, a native of Connecticut and probably the most fearless explorer of all time - John Ledyard.
In the next couple of weeks we will explore John Ledyard through an 1828 book by Jared Sparks. The book is biographical sketch on John Ledyard drawing from his journals and letters. This is a one and only production of its kind, brought to you by Our History Project Productions
This episode:
The Preface and Chapter One: We learn about John beginnings, his home and family. We also look in to the spirit of knowledge, comedy, and bizarre acts that made this man who he was and where he started. This is a character I have wanted to something on and when I found a copy of the book I could not resist. I am no professional reader by any means, but I wanted to try something new here at OHP a chance for you to learn along with me. What you hear, is as far as I go in any given week. Leaving the week to google the people that surrounds John and to explore his life as I go.

History Podcast - The Pig War - Glenn Harbour
Glenn Harbour - The Pig War
Our History Project is proud to bring you yet another piece of lost history. Glenn Harbour joins us today to talk about the forgotten and little known: ”Pig War”. An action, which almost caused an international incident at the beginning of an uncertain time just prior to the outbreak of the War Between the States (1859). This was an interesting story and the theories, what if’s and conspiracies could have really ran rampant on this one. I think that is one reason that makes this fun. You can contact Glenn at miliebetea@yahoo.com .

Tell Us A Story
This week the show is not only for the history lover, metal detectorist or collectors but also for those aspiring to get into print. That’s right- Do you write? Do you want to? Or better yet - should you?
In this episode the Publisher of American Digger Magazine and Author of several books tells us what we should know about submissions, content and the do’s and don’ts of the writing industry. In essence this is not only what he looks for but every print publication looks for. This is one of those shows that is for any and everyone so pass it around.
It also brings up again the question: Should you write? I’m at fault here as well. I spend a lot of time researching but not a lot of time writing, but think about this – What are you finding in the field? Who was there? Why are you looking for this stuff in the first place? And the questions go on and on. Let us preserve this history with a little story.

OHP Radio - Finding Slavery
Today Butch and I take a look into Slavery, its trade, its past and some items that part of our dark history left behind. You may be thinking that the advent of slavery started when the white man first set foot on North American soil but we take a deeper look into the topic. In this country the focus will always be on the Enslaved Africans and rightly so and Our History Project is proud to engage in the topics of our history and our future. This may seem like a depressing topic but as always we make history fun. So, sit back, relax and join us as we introduce another “In the Dirt with American Digger” sement.
Have a great week,

OHP Radio - The Canonball House in Historic Macon, GA
An Invitation For You
Welcome to Our History Project
I want to invite you to the Canonball House Museum in Macon, GA. It is a stop along the trail that you will not forget because it has something for everyone. From the little kids to the big kids they have a piece of history and a love of sharing that will not only embrace you but also immerse you in history. The unique experience in talking to Dorene Buchanan is that she could talk as much about the rest of Historical Macon as she did about the Canonball House, and they want you to explore it all.
The Canonball House is right off I-75 and I-16 in Macon, GA, so the next time you are driving through pull off, stretch your legs and explore some History with them. If your local, what better way to spend the day. They would love to have ya.

OHP RADIO - Captain Dale Dye
We are joined by Captain Dale Dye (USMC Ret.). If you do not recognize the name I’m sure you will know the movies – Saving Private Ryan, Platoon, Band of Brothers are just to name a few. Dale Dye is an actor, director, advisor and so much more. We credit him with bringing the real story to Hollywood and putting the realism into the movies we see. Capt. Dye is the real deal – 3 Purple Hearts, Bronze Star and several other medals of distinction. If anyone knows what it should be, he is one that can tell you from firsthand experience.
Also, starting this week you can purchase HQ copies of the show. The cost is $5 per CD. A $2 shipping charge will apply but only to one of them - so you can order 50 copies and still only be $2 shipping. AND, YES - IT'S TAX DEDUCTABLE!
All shows will still remain free online (no change there). All the shows we post are recorded at 48 bits and these CD's will be at 192 bit, Just a cleaner sound. The difference is also the size. We try and keep the downloads under 30MB in size while the CDs do not limit the size for audio.
We are just thinking of ways that we can provide a product at a low cost to you to help fund our Nonprofit Mission. We will be building our past shows so if you want a specific one let me know and I'l work on those first.
Any questions drop me an email at craiganderson@ourhistoryproject.com
