Summary: Fantastic US History Lessons
Comment: I am a middle school US history teacher and have used the Boston Massacre trial activity from the book for the past four years. This simulated trial has been a perenaial favorite with my students and I can't say enough good things about the book. Gary Schoales has done a superb job, and any teacher who likes hands-on, student-directed learning will appreciate this collection of trials. Mr. Schoales, if you read this, thanks!

Summary: Superlative historical role-play/re-enactments!
Comment: *Justice and Dissent* provides five historical trials--Salem Witch Trials, Boston Massacre, Fuigitive Slave Law, Andersonville Prison, and the Rosenbergs--for students to re-enact in classes. Copious, easy-to-follow guidelines make it easy. This month, I used the Salem trial--my freshmen portrayed afflicted girls, accused women, Salem magistrates, ministers, and testifying townsfolk. The "characters" are actual figures from history and the information provided is accurate and in detail. I'm doing the Boston Massacre this week and I can't wait. I teach ninth grade U.S. history and this is the best resource I've found anywhere.
