Judith Sargent Murray: A Brief History with Documents, Vol. 1
The only story I read from this collection was Mohammed Dib's "Naema--Whereabouts Unknown."
I really enjoyed the story, which takes a look at the disasters of war in Algeria.
This piece would go great as a pre-reading activity before a lesson over "Endangered" by exposing students to the nature of warfare in third world countries.
