I've written a pair of well-received books your students would benefit from. Both cover undertold aspects of Pennsylvania's local history. 'Visions of Teaoga' -- designed for middle schoolers -- is a dramatic treatment of Indian-settler conflicts in the 1700s. 'Embattled Freedom,' about fugitive slaves and black Civil War Soldiers, is a great resource for high schools. Being a career journalist, I spent years of careful research for both books. Talk to me about visiting your school to discuss primary-source research and more.
