Summary: American Documents Wonderfully Packaged
Comment: Wonderful vignettes of American history are illustrated in this book with brief descriptions and a picture of the archival document around which the story is built.
It's all here from the Louisiana Purchase to the Emancipation Proclamation to the telegram notifying FDR of the raid on Pearl Harbor to a photo of Neil Armstrong on the moon to the infamous picture of Nixon and Elvis (the US Archives most requested document I understand).
The format is a document and description to a page. This is a great book to flip through or to introduce the young teen reader to interesting snippets of US history.
Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderfully Done!
Comment: I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Seeing important historical original documents that you would otherwise have to go to Washington, DC to see (if on display), was a delight. My teenage son also enjoyed seeing and reading about the documents in this book. Highly recommended for people interested in historical archived documents.
