Mysteries of American History

Wed, Apr 1, 202642 mins

Josh Gates explores three mysteries woven into the fabric of American history, digging beneath the official record to reveal how our country's past may be far more complicated than the stories we've been taught. What really happened to the USS Scorpion, a U.S. Navy submarine that disappeared during the height of the Cold War? Who truly sounded the legendary alarm that helped ignite the Revolutionary War, and does new research change the story of Paul Revere's famous midnight ride? And finally, a shocking theory surrounding John Wilkes Booth, America's most infamous assassin. Could he have escaped justice only to meet a far stranger fate than the one recorded in the history books?
