Beskrivelse
From factories to farms and ballrooms to battlefields, this exciting new series uses clothing as a window through which to view our nation's ever-changing social and political climate. Through the use of engaging text, fine art illustrations, historical photographs, and living history reenactments, young readers are given a unique perspective on American history from the first settlements to the tumult of the Civil War.Although the early Americans began their new lives dressed as British subjects, the realities of life in their new home quickly reshaped what the colonists wore, creating an early difference between the colonists and the British subjects in England. Chronicling changing clothing norms, as well as the clothing worn by the Native Americans, this books paints a vivid picture of life in the new land that was to become America.
