Liberty!: How the Revolutionary War Began

by Lucille Recht Penner

Book Overview

How the Revolutionary War Began The American colonists were fed up with British law. They refused to buy English goods. They formed a militia of tradesmen and farmers ready to fight at a moment's notice. Most importantly, they joined together. All 13 colonies sent representatives to decide whether they should form a new country. That group wrote the Declaration of Independence, the document that summed up a revolution.

I bought this book to use with my 8th graders whose subject matter is US History. I read portions of it to them and created it into a great resource book. I would recommed this to other teachers.
