This book gives a synopsis or brief biography of the important people on both sides of the American Revolution, along with an image of what the person looked like. As a teacher of the American Revolution to fifth graders, I appreciate the format in which the people are laid out as either Patriot, British, or women. Usually books have everyone lumped together and unless you’re familiar with the names, it’s hard to know which side they were on. This book makes it very clear who the team players were.
