Publisher's Description of Standing Miracle
A Standing Miracle provides an overview of the incredible story of how the American colonists took the crucial actions - in spite of severe and unseen consequences - to become citizens of the United States of America rather than remain King George III's subjects. They endured 20 years of struggles, sacrifices and war to win America's independence and the freedom to establish the United States. This compelling story is told through yearly timelines -1763 to 1783 - and short narratives that describe the events as well as the personal side of the story. Plus, it includes reproductions of original documents and color images that help to visualize this important history through the eyes of artists. A Standing Miracle enhances and elevates readers knowledge, understanding and appreciation of this troubling but hopeful period during America's birth. It is a wonderful book for students - middle school and older - to learn how the American Revolution led to the Declaration of Independence and the establishment of the United States of America.
