"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Gr 3-8-Stein's text has been marginally revised from an earlier edition (Childrens, 1985). He describes how, routed at the Battle of Brandywine, Washington's forces retreated to Valley Forge. Quotations personalize their suffering, their resolve, and their loyalty to Washington. The addition of full-color and black-and-white photos, period paintings, and reproductions adds enormously to the book's appeal, though a white box containing CIP information is awkwardly inserted into a full-page painting. More background information and detail can be found in Libby Hughes's Valley Forge (Dillon, 1993); Stein's book is a useful additional resource.-Sally Bates Goodroe, Houston Public Library
