Parents want books that reinforce values and teach history, but kids want excitement. Profiles of Integrity Vol 2 delivers it all: riveting but real stories set during westward expansion, the War of 1812, the American Civil War era, and the Victorian Era of England. Each chapter shows integrity in action, not just in theory. Page-turning narratives include kidnappings, daring escapes, dangerous expeditions, and fierce battles. The series features a mix of Americans and international figures, men and women, young and old, showing that integrity is universal to the human experience.
Volume 2 of the Profiles of Integrity series would be an interesting accompanying reader to a student studying American history from post Revolutionary War through the Civil War. Covering more well known characters such as Sacagawea, Francis Scott Key, Queen Victoria, Abraham Lincoln, and Robert E. Lee, lesser known stories about their lives are profiled as examples of truthfulness, respectfulness, virtue, wisdom, initiative, gentleness, boldness, sensitivity, and tolerance. Appropriate for middle to high school students.
