Using a lively blend of comic panels, photographs, sidebars, and engaging text, Messner weaves in the stories of women, enslaved people, Native Americans, and everyday colonists who are rarely centered in traditional accounts of the Revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a fantastic choice for students because it teaches the essential skill of questioning historical narratives, introduces multiple perspectives on the founding of America, and does so in a format that keeps even reluctant readers turning pages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books del Sur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43837528440950,"sku":"9780593120460","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1752\/6773\/files\/Histroy_smashers_the_American_Revoution.png?v=1783017742"},{"product_id":"dk-eyewitness-american-revolution","title":"DK Eyewitness: American Revolution","description":"\u003cp\u003eDK Eyewitness: American Revolution is a fully revised and updated edition of the beloved reference series, bringing the story of American independence to life through striking full-color photographs, detailed illustrations, infographics, timelines, and expert first-hand accounts — covering everything from the muskets and cannons of the Continental Army to the key figures of the Revolution, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and Sacagawea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFact-checked by subject specialists and mapped to curriculum standards, this book is a visually stunning resource for students ages 9-12.

Rosalyn Schanzer spent two years researching paintings, cartoons, and firsthand accounts to fairly present both perspectives, using vivid illustrations and authentic quotes to show that history is rarely a simple story of good guys versus bad guys.
