School Library Journal - 02/01/2016 Gr 3–6—The ability to make sense of and evaluate primary sources is an important one. These updates to a series that SLJ once called "strong options for those introducing the concept of primary source analysis" are ideal additions. Previous offerings took on the dust bowl, slavery, U.S. independence, and westward expansion. With quotes from letters, speeches, and newspaper articles presented in brown and italicized, these offerings are sure to fit the bill for students doing research on U.S. history. - Copyright 2016 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
