THG's Year in Review

In 1891, British humorist Jerome K. Jerome wrote that “Whenever five or six English-speaking people meet round a fire on Christmas Eve, they start telling each other ghost stories.”

In September, 1918, two desperate battles unfolded over two consecutive days between lightly armed American Naval vessels and the same German Submarine.

On September 22, 1953 a new kind of construction was fully opened for the first time in Los Angeles. The Stack is an LA icon that changed the way the world builds its highways.

In a time when the war news was almost universally disastrous for the US, the "Devil Boats" of John D Bulkeley's PT Squadron Three offered an important boost to American Morale.
