American Revolution Reference Library: With Cumulative Index
Editorial Reviews
Review
Book Report :
"Sidebars, bibliographies, Web sites, and a comprehensive index make this an easy-to-access reference that belongs in every middle-school library. Highly recommended."
- The Book Report (November/December 2000)
"The page layout is clear and the organization is appropriate for middle school students. … Each volume can be used independently, but Primary Sources provides documentary evidence to support the Almanac's narrative history. Used together, the volumes will benefit student researchers. The two-volume American Revolution: Biographies … completes this useful series."
- Voice of Youth Advocates (December 2000)
"This excellent set is for students in grades five through nine who are researching the American Revolution. … This set is attractive and easy to use. It gives broad coverage of the era, not just of the war. It is especially valuable when used with its sister set, Colonial America Reference Library. All libraries serving students at the targeted level should consider purchasing both sets."
- Reference Books Bulletin/Booklist (Nov. 15, 2000)
