These nonfiction volumes are banal recitations of basic facts augmented by graphic-novel-style illustrations. The focus on action does little to inspire discussion or explore the complexity of history. They will appeal to visually oriented students, but higher quality picture books are already available on these topics. There are four other spring 2005 books in this series. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind.

Texas, 1836. The Republic of Texas began the fight for independence in 1833. For several years, Texans fought the Mexican government for the right to rule itself. One of the historical battles was fought on March 6, 1836, at the Alamo, a crumbling fort defended by 154 men. Stand with the defenders in what became a symbol of Texan courage and sacrifice in this impressive graphic novel. Maps, timelines, glossaries, and indexes make these titles an exciting addition to classroom discussion.
