Klappentext

The best way to learn about historical events is from those who lived through them. That belief is at the heart of this collection that combines detailed explanations of pivotal moments in modern history with first-person accounts from people who experienced those moments. With topics that range from the attack on Pearl Harbor and the civil rights movement to 9/11 and the COVID-19 pandemic, events in both the distant and recent past are made personal for young people through this approachable and interactive primary source library.
