On August 24, 1932, Amelia Earhart became the first woman to fly across the United States non-stop and solo, touching down in Newark after a gruelling overnight flight from Los Angeles. Two days later, on August 26, 1920, Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby signed the Nineteenth Amendment into law, granting some 26 million American women the right to vote after more than seven decades of struggle. On August 27, 1859, Edwin Drake's crew struck oil near Titusville, Pennsylvania — and the petroleum age was born. That same date in 1883, Krakatoa erupted with such catastrophic force that the sound reached Australia, tsunamis killed tens of thousands, and ash in the atmosphere altered global weather for years.
Also this week: Galileo demonstrated his telescope to Venetian lawmakers in 1609; English longbowmen won a stunning upset at the Battle of Crécy in 1346; Captain Matthew Webb became the first person to swim the English Channel in 1875; Richard Wagner's Lohengrin premiered in Weimar in 1850; and Michael Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction in 1831 — the finding that makes every generator and electric motor on Earth possible.
And on August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and delivered the 'I Have a Dream' speech to more than 250,000 people. History doesn't get much bigger than this week.
