[Publib] Beowulf and November Highlights

[Carole Bos]

During November we recall numerous world events:  The fall of the Berlin Wall; the coronation of Elizabeth I; the Mayflower Compact; the assassination of President Kennedy; the arrest of Susan B. Anthony for voting in a presidential election; the only flight of the Spruce Goose; the Gunpowder Plot and more.  Learn the details of those, and other events, in this summary of November Highlights.  http://www.awesomestories.com/Newsletters/Nov%202007%20Newsletter.htm   

Also in this month's issue is a story about Beowulf (including a video link to a performance - with Anglo-Saxon harp - of the epic in Old English), a list of topics commemorating Native-American Heritage Month, plus a list of numerous stories now available as audio recordings.
