The American Patriot’s Almanac
This book is a must-have for anyone who cares about America. Our country became great because of numerous people doing the best they could where they were. In this book you will read about patriots you’ve heard of, such as Andrew Jackson and George Washington, but also many that you have not, like Israel Putnam and William Carney.
Each day has a short entry about one patriot with brief details to whet your appetite for more research if you find yourself interested. You’ll also find a list of other historical events for the day. Interspersed between the months are various items too large for a single day, such as the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution to name a few.
I have really enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone with any interest at all in the history of our nation.
I read this as part of Thomas Nelson Book Review Blogger Program.
