48 pp. | Lerner | September, 2010 | Library ISBN 978-1-58013-665-5 $29.27
(4) 4-6 Six Questions of American History series. Filled with numerous sidebars and sometimes too-busy colorful graphics, these lively narratives detail specific events that led to the Pilgrims' founding of Plymouth Colony, the Boston Tea Party, and the Emancipation Proclamation. Though the information is selective, the volumes provide accessible introductions to American history. Reading list, timeline, websites. Bib. Review covers these Six Questions of American History titles: How Did Tea and Taxes Spark a Revolution?, When Were the First Slaves Set Free During the Civil War?[cf21], and Why Did the Pilgrims Come to the New World?.
