Tales of Young Patriots is a collection of twelve exciting short stories for middle or high school social studies students. Whether in a classroom or just casual reading at home, these snapshots of American history help explain how our country was created with the help of young adults. From the ocean passages of the 1600s to our modern desert wars, Young Patriots contains lessons of virtue driven by action.

Part I includes another view of the Salem witch trials explaining a mysterious phenomenon. During the War of 1812, a young man dodges the British warships while the Star Spangled Banner is being written, and two boys of different races team up to survive a Civil War battle.

Part II illustrates how a U.S. II History class can come alive. Issues arise, and discussions form. From the street urchins of New York at the turn of the century to the homeless hoboes roaming the country during the Depression, we get a close-up of young people from long ago. A long-distance romance during World War II, the protesters of the Vietnam era, and the return of a young warrior from Desert Storm serve to give life to our more recent past. Great for additions to an academic setting, vacation reading, or actual test material with questions and answers included, Tales of Young Patriots will stir the imagination of young adults.
