Review # 1 was written on 2021-05-16 00:00:00 Linda Leppert Usually people do not stop to reflect if the law has been inequitable, especially in the western - developed or rich - nations, especially past the slavery era. It is assumed that once slavery was dispensed with equality was a given as was liberty and opportunity. Far from true, and it is rarely either obvious or noticed if the law is dealing with all citizens as equal. Across the gender gap this is all the more so, and this book for one is a good beginning to acquaint oneself with facts as they are, as they have been.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-12-21 00:00:00 Juan Carlos De Arcos Grover Cleveland was our only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms in office, making him both the 22nd and 24th president. Cleveland was known for his honesty and strong work ethic. However, his unpopular insistence on lowering tariffs cost him the 1889 election to Benjamin Harrison. Harrison’s much weaker administration changed voter’s minds, and Cleveland was re-elected in 1893. Each book in this series has: nice photographs, political drawings, chronological small chapters describing the life of each president, a glossary, lucid timelines, and interesting facts listed in the margins (my favorite part). A must have collection for any elementary and junior high classroom or libraries.
