Discovery of North America
1970.
Sun Books for Hamlyn Publishing
, Melbourne, Australia
Part of the Sun Books all-colour paperback series, this is a compact history with great illustrations ideal for young people to gain insight into the complex history of North America. However, this is not a simple children's book; the text is quite advanced and requires careful reading. It recounts the birth of the United States, the early struggles for survival by British, Spanish, Dutch, and French colonies, and the eventual American Revolution. These beginnings of a great nation are thrillingly told and beautifully illustrated.
