Includes:
The Cabin Faced West- By Jean Fritz
Ann Hamilton's family has moved to the western frontier of Pennsylvania, and she misses her old home in Gettysburg. There are no girls her age on Hamilton Hill, and life is hard. But when the Hamiltons survive a terrible storm and receive a surprise visit from George Washington, Ann realizes that pioneer life is exciting and special.
The Santa Fe Trail- By David Lavender
Intense heat, killing blizzards, and the constant threat of attacking Indians made traveling the Santa Fe Trail - the 775-mile-long wagon road between frontier Missouri and Santa Fe, New Mexico - very risky.
Alamo!- By George Sullivan
A valuable new reference work for students of the Spanish Empire, this dictionary presents biographies of the 172 men who served on the Council of the Indies--the supreme judicial tribunal for Spain's colonial empire--from the time of Philip V's reforms in 1717 to the French invasion in 1808. Based on the extensive documentation contained in Spanish archives and on various secondary sources, it offers a wealth of historical detail on a period that is important both to Spanish history and to the development of the New World.
