Council Bluffs Community provides students and community leaders with the history of Council Bluffs, Iowa, in hopes of uniting generations of past, present, and future inhabitants. From Amelia Bloomer, the first female owner and publisher of a newspaper in 1849, to Nathan Pusey, Harvard President from 1953-1971, Council Bluffs natives have impacted lives across the nation. What once began as a trading post and the starting point for the Transcontinental Railroad, would one day serve as a model for communities across the country through rich history, active student engagement, and the undeniable grit of past, present, and future inhabitants. Council Bluffs was named an All American City in 2017. Written by local teacher and Abraham Lincoln High School graduate, Ayin Morales, the work's author hopes that Council Bluffs students always remember how valuable their presence is in Council Bluffs.
