Amazing Americans Sample Pages

Abigail Adams shared great ideas with her husband John in the thousands of letters she wrote to him. She influenced John Adams to work for American independence from Great Britain and to write fair laws for women. She also witnessed the gathering storm of the American Revolution and helped the soldiers in the Battle of Bunker Hill. By sharing her ideas with a man who would one day become president, she helped create the new American nation.

This engaging new series of leveled biographies brings history to life one dramatic story at a time.

By focusing on poignant moments as well as public triumphs, Amazing Americans makes paragons of American history feel accessible and real.
