Welcome to the History News Network!

George Mason University's History News Network (HNN) is a website designed with teachers in mind. It's where teachers-in-the-know go to find out the history behind the stories in the news. It's free. It's timely. It's credible.

Each week the website homepage features articles by name historians writing about current events ... everything from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to the meltdown on Wall Street.

Keep up on all the topics in the news by clicking on HNN's HOT TOPICS page.

DROP into our TEACHER'S LOUNGE for helpful resources on teaching history.
