"The First Book of America is the exciting career story of thirteen small colonies that became a mighty nation. At the heart of it is the story of an idea that spread and grew: freedom.

The story of America is that of freedom and the never-ending fight to gain and keep it. It is the story of the men of courage and vision who led the way when freedom faltered, of the thrilling events that shaped our country's growth, and of the American people themselves, who accepted the responsibilities that show more freedom brought.

The color and the drama, the triumphs and the heartaches of our amazing history are here, with the realization that freedom is never completely and finally won, and every American boy and girl can do his share to guard it.

A simple introduction to the history and ideals of our country, appealingly illustrated by Fred Collins."

An interesting "Christianized" take on the Robin Hood legend. The illustrations are wonderful.
