The Adventurous Life of Myles Standish and the Amazing-but-True Survival Story of Plymouth Colony
(4)
4-6
Thorough, informative, and chatty, these biographies bring readers the background of the events covered, along with a sense of immediacy as we're thrust into the perils of the Oregon Trail or into the Plymouth Colony wilderness. Extensive timelines on each page are useful, although slightly distracting. Illustrations are comprehensive, despite some details being muddy. Whitman has a chronology. Reading list. Bib., ind. Review covers these titles: The Adventurous Life of Myles Standish and the Amazing-But-True Survival Story of the Plymouth Colony and The Tragic Tale of Narcissa Whitman and a Faithful History of the Oregon Trail.
