Though the writing can be choppy, the volumes serve as decent introductions. Impressionistic illustrations (some muddy) help bring the subjects to life. Glos., ind. Review covers these Looking Glass Library: Our Nation's Pride titles: The Bald Eagle, Ellis Island, The Lincoln Memorial, and Memorial Day.
