The Legend of Robin Hood
Stories of the outlaw archer Robin Hood reach back to medieval times. However, movies, books, comic books, and television shows about him still populate our popular culture. Readers will not only become absorbed by the legend of the folk hero, complete with his Merry Men and the evil Sheriff of Nottingham, they'll be intrigued by the debate about whether Robin Hood is based on a real person. Famous illustrations and fun facts abound in this high-interest volume.
Harriet Tubman in Her Own Words
Harriet Tubmans fame as a conductor on the Underground Railroad led to her nickname: Moses. She displayed considerable courage leading fugitive slaves to freedom and, incredibly, never lost a passenger. Less well known is Tubmans service in the Union army as a scout and spy during the Civil War. This captivating volume uses Tubmans own remembrances as well as other primary sources to provide a greater understanding of her astonishing life story as well as major issues of the United States in the 1800s. Historic photographs, fact boxes, and sidebars add valuable information to the main text and appealing design.
