The Historic William Jennings Bryan House Is An Underrated Historical Gem In Nebraska
Bryan is a name you hear often in Nebraska, particularly in the eastern part. It’s on hospitals, schools, historical places, and more. It’s all thanks to William Jennings Bryan, the famed Nebraska orator and politician. He made quite an impact on the country and on the state, and you can visit his former home in Lincoln.

While here, he established a successful law practice and got involved with local politics. Being a naturally gifted orator, Bryan campaigned for several politicians before becoming an elected congressman himself in 1890. He later went on to become the 41st U.S. Secretary of State from 1913-1915. He also unsuccessfully ran for the office of President three times.
