Colonial Williamsburg

This book is part of a nine-month-long celebration of the 300th anniversary of Lexington, Massachusetts, which was incorporated in 1713. Of course it includes good history about Colonial life in a New England farming community and a detailed telling of the First Shot of the American Revolution on April 19, 1775 (including a panel about "Parker's Revenge" and the man who almost blew himself up to deny the town's gunpowder supply to the Redcoats). But this graphic history also has material for civics and government teachers who need to show an example of how direct democracy works or how citizens can participate in local government.
