Whether history buffs or newcomers to the topic, young readers will appreciate the many fascinating facts, photographs, and statistics included in this book, and thrill in this real-life account of victory against all odds.This thoroughly-researched and documented book can be worked into multiple aspects of the common core curriculum.
