Colorful

This book is in the series "A Primary Source History of the United States." Having books available like this one from this series would allow the teacher to simply select a book for individual reading work, while providing history instruction at the same time. Perhaps not the most visually appealing on this list, the book is still colorful with many pictures to help students learn what this time period was like in the US.
