Fellow GDG'er's I am in need of some help. My fiancé and I took our 14 year
old nieces to the reenactment in Hamilton, NJ. A good time was had by all.
I took them out to watch the battle. I explained what they were going to
see happen. My fiance's niece turned to me and in all innocence said, "Aunt
Terry, which ones are the BRITISH?" (I guess they are not teaching much
about the CW in Cherry Hill's middle schools.) I hugged her and told her we
would have a talk soon about the CW. She asked me for the Cliff Notes
version. Any thoughts on a book for young teens about the CW and Gettysburg
(we are planning to bring them out for Remembrance Day)?
Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Terry Egley
