Bowling in US migrated from Germany known as KEGEL. Kegeling was first used to to determine guilt for a crime by having the suspect roll a rock at a stick and if it was hit, the suspect is presumed not guilty. Prior to that, bowing dates back as far as egyptions before christ. I have done a significant amount of research on the history of bowling as it all is pretty interesting.

I don't know what kind of 'history' you looking for, but you may want to read this thread:

Go to PBA.com forum (you need to register)
Go to Previous PBA Tour Years
Go to 'BILLY HARDWICK' post

If you have time, read them all, if not, go to page 8 and page 11, and read the post by 'Phantom'
