    Perfect for us!
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2022*

I began homeschooling about 3 years ago. I always struggled teaching history because all of the curriculums are Zzzzz —boring! So I began teaching history through story-telling. For example, we began US History with Jamestown, so we read Blood on the River. It was an amazing and in-depth way of learning about this settlement but it was also fun and memorable! I couldn’t find a fun children’s novel for the French and Indian War, so I settled for this book. I didn’t have super high expectations but using this book paired with a globe and our own hand-written timeline book, it has been wonderful and not boring at all. Granted, we are only 2 pages in, but we have gotten about 30 minutes of in-depth conversation from these two pages. We are taking it slowly and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the book has in store for us!

    Part of a Great American History Series
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2012*

The Colonial period of American history is one of the most fascinating eras and also one of the most ignored.  For most Americans, Colonial history starts in 1620 with the arrival of the Mayflower and then goes fast forwards to 1775 and the beginning of the American Revolution.  The War of American Independence just sort of happens and there is very little understanding of the historical context."The Struggle for a Continent" describes the battle for control over the North American Continent between France and Great Britain.  Of particular note, Betsy Maestro does an admirable job of explaining the role of the Algonquin and the Iroquois Confederation in the ensuing wars.  A better children's book on the French and Indian Wars would be hard to imagine.  Betsy Maestro is a strong writer and the "Struggle for a Continent" has the potential to be classic in the children's historical non-fiction category.  Along with all of the other volumes in "The American Story" series, this book is highly recommended.
