Critic reviews

Americans love their myths. However, contrary to what many may think, Abner Doubleday did not invent baseball. There’s no proof that Betsy Ross sewed the first flag. Abraham Lincoln wasn’t the main speaker at Gettysburg. These are all part of the myths of U.S. history, explain the books in this series. Each compelling story is heavily illustrated with photos showing period settings set among large type. The language is age appropriate and chatty. This series is great for report writers, especially those who dare to expose ingrained myths. VERDICT Myth-dispelling can be an interesting way to look at history. These titles are solid choices for school and public libraries. (Anne Chapman Callaghan, Racine Public Library, WI)
