Vermont is more than cheese, maple syrup and ski slopes. It is filled with enormous history and rich New England culture. This book will explain all that to you and your students, if you're a teacher.The "Portrait of America" series is a wonderful introduction for pre-teens to the 50 states and to the places and events that shaped the history of the United States. This "Vermont" installment is particularly good. The book is broken down into sections like "History", "Culture", "Economy" etc., and each section is thoughtfully written and edited. The "History" section is especially good and is very inclusive, and details many of the Revolutionary War events. This book, as well as the entire "Portrait of America" series, will prove to be a valuable teaching tool to all primary school educators.
