Tony Horwitz's "A Voyage Long and Strange: Rediscovering the New World" covers the often forgotten years of American history before the Pilgrims. Reading it you will learn about the Vikings, Christopher Columbus, Spanish explorations from Florida to the Southwest, settling of Roanoke etc. The book is a lovely combination of the history of places discovered before the Pilgrims and current times in those places.
