5.0 out of 5 stars Historical Interpretation is Alive and Well in America!, December 4, 2000
By 
Emily Schell (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Charley Waters Goes To Getybrg (Library Binding)
There are many wonderful facets to this story about a young boy who joins his family for an annual reenactment of the battle at Gettysburg. A pictoral essay provides an authentic look at the preparation and event providing an excellent forum for discussion among readers. The story, however, told from the perspective of this proud, young boy, shares a spirit of patriotism and historical empathy this is often difficult to relay to children as well as adults. Charley's experiences interpreting history as a reenactor emphasize the power of experiential learning. Every Social Studies teacher should read, learn from and share this beautiful story with students making note of the many history teachers in our students' lives -- parents, siblings, community members, museums and organizations!
