Horn Book Review

The books in this series briefly examine specific events in the course of the Civil War, from its origins through its aftermath. Misleading statements may confuse readers, and the dull, repetitive texts don't provide full explanations of events. Maps and black-and-white and color reproductions--many recycled among the volumes--illustrate the texts. A timeline can be found at the end of each book. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Let Freedom Ring titles: [cf2]Battle of Gettysburg, The Massachusetts 54th, Emancipation Proclamation, The Underground Railroad, Reconstruction[cf1], and [cf2]Secession[cf1].] (c) Copyright 2010.
