A Precolombian Kidnapping

World famous historian David Kennedy (the guy who wrote American Pageant) has been kidnapped! The kidnappers demand ransom, but strangely not in the form of payment. Instead they claim to be students in AP United States History who want the to know why the book is so long and their teacher is forcing them to read it. They want to take an easy route and just get Kennedy to tell them the answers to the test. In order to get Kennedy back, you will need to open a series of digital locks. However, the only way for you to open the locks is to review what you have learned about America from 1491-1607. It will be important to know CHRONOLOGY and LOCATION and POINT OF VIEW for your quest. Beware of "red herrings" that are meant to distract you and won't help you open the locks!
