Who Am I?: Clue-By-Clue Biographical Sketches of American Historical Figures

by Marsha Lynn Beeman

As an NAACP lawyer, I tried 32 major cases, including Brown v. Board of Education. In 1967 I became the first black to serve on the United States Supreme Court. Who am I?Looking for the perfect way to pique student interest in U.S. history? Who Am I? may be the answer. Twelve chapters, twelve people each: 144 born-in-America leaders, past and present, women and men. Make a game of it: for each, there are five graduated clues in the form of biographical statements, and a brief regular bio in full. At the back of the book are answers, with three titles for further reading cited for each person.
