Gr 7 Up-Filled with outstanding, poignant photographs that, in themselves, make it worth purchasing, this volume takes readers through 125 events that have transformed and shaped America since 1900. What unfolds is not only a timeline, but also a story of how these moments have effected all aspects of American life, from our government and our role in the world to technology, science, music, art, women's and civil rights, and even our perception of what it means to be an American. Interspersed among the articles are shaded sidebars that discuss the important events that were happening around the world at that time. The layout of text and pictures is colorful, easy on the eyes, and interesting. The text is lively, succinct, and immensely informative. The book will serve both the recreational and assignment needs of students, and may very well spark an interest in further research.-Linda Wadleigh, Oconee County Middle School, Watkinsville, GA
