| Do No Harm, Do Know Harm |
My 11 year old is crazy over this Hamilton play. Asking Revolutionary War questions all the time. He reads at an 8th grade level. Looking for any recommendations of interesting historical fiction of the era. Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here. Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard. -JALLEN "All I need is a WAR ON DRUGS reference and I got myself a police thread BINGO." -jljones | ||

++1 Great book! If he's interested in the Civil War, "Rifles for Waite" by Harold Keith is excellent.

I've heard good things about Rush Revere and the American Revolution as it is historically accurate. | |||

"Liberty Kids" is still available on the Internet. Not reading material of course, but 39 episodes which your youngster might find interesting. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

There is a Revolutionary War edition in the “I survived” series of fiction books. I can’t speak to how good or accurate it is though. | |||

Thank you! I'll be ordering the Rush Revere series to start him. If he likes that I've got several more here to pick from.
