(4) 4-6 American Revolution Through Primary Sources series. These bland introductions discuss growing tensions between England and the colonies; the significant events leading up to and during the war; the men, women, and children who helped bring victory to the thirteen colonies; and the founding of our Constitution. Archival photographs and maps (with "primary source" called out where applicable) enhance these histories. The books' young-looking format seems at odds with their intended audience. Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. This review covers these American Revolution Through Primary Sources titles: American Indians and African Americans of the American Revolution, Courageous Children and Women of the American Revolution, The Making of the United States from Thirteen Colonies, An Overview of the American Revolution, Washington's Crossing the Delaware and the Winter at Valley Forge, and Why We Won the American Revolution.
