PRODUCT SUMMARY
The Revolutionary War created many heroes, including the men who would go down in history as the Founding Fathers of a new country. Yet there were many other men, women and children whose names you might not know, but whose acts of courage helped win the war against the British. Revolutionary War Heroes focuses on the daring acts of patriotism from people such as Nathan Hale, Sybil Ludington and Molly Pitcher, and the brave military feats of Colonel Francis Marion, Captain John Paul Jones and the Black Rhode Island Regiment. Kids will see how these ordinary citizens accomplished extraordinary things, rising to the challenge when they were needed to ensure independence for the fledgling nation. Part of the multivolume Great Americans for Children DVD Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online.
