"In this interesting concept, called Connect, three nonfiction titles include primary source images, address some common myths about the war. . . .The fictional title is a valuable addition and places accurate historical facts into a well-written account of the siege of South Carolina in 1780. This would be a good addition to both Social Studies and Language Arts classrooms and could be used to meet Common Core Standards because it is a high-interest series."
