About this title

Review:

"Designed to supplement classroom texts, this thorough, multilayered analysis invites instructors and students to explore the past in order to understand what led to and resulted from many major events in American history...Although there are no illustrations, except for occasional maps and charts, the large print and two-column page layout make this solid work manageable for YA readers."
