| Synopsis |
AMERICAN REVOLUTION FOR STUDENTS traces the struggle for power and control between the colonies and Great Britain. From the colonists' rejection of mercantilist laws to the "shot heard round the world" and the eventual establishment of the world's greatest experiment in democracy, students will get a vivid look at the remarkable decisions, documents and personalities that help lay the foundation for the development of a new nation. In DECLARING INDEPENDENCE (1774-1776) students will examine the events that lead up to the momentous drafting of the Declaration of Independence. From the battles of Lexington and Concord to Thomas Paine's demands for a little "Common Sense," see how the protest against the enforcement of British taxes and trade laws turned into a full-fledged battle for liberty.
