Swamp Fox Fever
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Since I have known Mrs. Bodie since I was six (suffice it to say, over 35 years), I admit prejudice in her favor. However, one must agree, that she is a thorough and meticulous researcher. A school teacher for over 30 years, her first love has always been to encourage young people to be curious about history. So, if this book seems a bit juvenile to your sophisticated senses, give it to your child who will thoroughly enjoy it!
Awesome

The Experiences of a Boy Prepare a Soldier
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The author has chosen slices of historic literature to catch the spirit of Francis Marion as a boy and a soldier.Woven into the factual events of Marion's life are details of life in the "low-country" of South Carolina. Children will enjoy reading about Marion's childhood escapades.In the second section of the book, the author describes Marion's life as a soldier. Children will be able to make the connection between the childhood experiences in the swamp with the success of the "Swamp Fox" as a soldier during the American Revolution.In addition to the story, the author provides a glossary of words needed for understanding, as well as, discussion topics that could be used in a classroom setting.
