Vivid History Twice

To get a grip on general (American) history there is a nice archive containing loads of original recordings of historical turning points - short audio clips as well as full speeches: American Rhetoric - The Power of Oratory in the United States. A special recommendation would be the list of Top100 speeches.

In turn, to get a grip on special (i.e. your own family) history you can consult the huge archive of mankind at familysearch.org. Just submit your last name or the full name of one of your ancestors and explore your lineage.
