Reviews for The Signers: The 56 Stories Behind the Declaration of Independence (2 vol.)

Rating

Mr Fradin cleverly divides this book into thirteen sections - one for each colony. He begins each chapter by first discussing the background and history of the colony, before detailing the life of each signer. Each fascinating biographical sketch includes details about their lives, both before and after they signed the Declaration, and the contributions each made to America's independence. Perfect for youngsters 10 and older, THE SIGNERS celebrates the triumph of the human spirit, and includes a readable copy of the Declaration of Independence. This is non-fiction at its very best, and definitely a living history lesson that shouldn't be missed.
