An interest in our country’s 250^th Anniversary has led me to read several books on the topic this year. I check out a variety of books to aid my understanding.

This nonfiction book is written for teens, yet it is also good for adults. The author chronicles the battles that began in April of 1775, and lead on to victory in Virginia.

The author’s explanations of customs and descriptions of battle locations deepen the reader’s understanding.

A timeline of events is especially helpful. Maps and a glossary are included.
