Great textbook. Very enlightening. What I liked most was reading the documents section of writings from people who experienced the revolution first hand.

I love history and am currently taking a class about the American Revolution. This book is very helpful and has many stories about the brave African Americans that fought and died for this country.
I'd highly recommend this book!

Great condition, only a few pencil marks, but this smelled sooooo much like cigarettes or tobacco or something it was hard to stand in the beginning. A few weeks later, it still smells like it but its aired out quite a bit.
