What is the importance of remembering and understanding history in Fahrenheit 451?
I think the point made in the book is that if we don't remember and understand... and basically just care... If we don't read and think, and watch how the world works, and care about our history and our freedom... it can be taken away from us very easily. If people don't read and remember, generations will grow up that don't understand or know the things that we fought to have, the things that we take for granted sometimes, but which are essential to our lives. Our freedom... of thought, of action, or speech. If we don't remember, then all someone has to do is inform us of limited choices, and we won't dream of the others. ... We won't fight for freedom if we don't even know what it is about.
Value of 1976 bicentennial Winchester 3030 lever action rifle Serial usa 9307 in good condition?
There were 19,999 of these produced, so there were quite a few available. Commemorative collectors want mint unfired weapons and they also usually want the original box and packing materials to pay top dollar, so this is a factor. This model came with a special simulated deer antler gun rack which would need to be included for the commemrative to be complete. In mint condition and if the simulated deer antler gun rack that came with the gun is included, I saw a value of $650 quoted, but I could not verify the date of when that price was quoted. Given the closing of the Winchester factory and the fact that the 94 Winchester is no longer produced the prices may begin to climb, so this could vary.

Benjamin Franklin is a well known colonial era inventor and statesmen. Travel during his time was not easy. The difficulties he had during his journey from Boston to Philadelphia revealed that he was strong willed and was willing to work through anything put in front of him.
One summer while in England he toured Scotland and Wales with British friends. While visiting a mining site in Wales a miner was injured with a pick axe through his shoulder. Bens friends told him the miner didn't feel pain like they did and he'd be back in the mine the next day.
