1.0 out of 5 stars not great kids book
My boys (ages 10, 9, 7, 5) and I found this book to be dull. We love history, but this one was lacking. It also had several instances of profanity which was surprising to me for a book that I thought was aimed at kids.

5.0 out of 5 stars readable, fast-moving, April 5, 2008
This review is from: Duel in the Wilderness (Paperback)
The book is readable, fast-moving, interesting, and tells a part of George Washington's life not normally told. It is historically pertinent because it relates the French-Indian wars to the American Revolution. It is interesting history while being also social commentary.
