Learning about the Civil War with Arts & Crafts

By Kira Freed

Book Overview

The Civil War was a difficult time in American history, as the North and South fought each other over slavery and other divisive issues. The history of this conflict is explained to readers through informative text, which is accompanied by photographs and other images from this time period. Fact boxes and sidebars provide readers with additional information about the Civil War and those who fought in it. These important facts are made more accessible to readers though hands-on arts and crafts projects. Readers follow detailed instructions to make their own Underground Railroad signal lanterns, army drums, and even quilts.
