OkieAnnie said Unimpressive. Bought this book for the grandsons for our upcoming trip to Valley Forge. Had hoped it would be a little more substantial.

By using minimal language, the texts oversimplify Revolutionary-era disputes and the complex life of Benjamin Franklin. In Valley Forge, for example, only four names are mentioned in the text (George Washington, Lafayette, Baron von Steuben, and General Charles Lee). Deciding which drawings are historical figures and which represent commoners often depends upon recollection of a figure's shirt/hair color. They present general background information about the Colonial period before focusing on a particular figure or event. From School Library
Tells the story of the American patriot troops during the Revolutionary War while wintering in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
