Amy Puetz History Books

History isn’t boring! It’s the story of real people who did real things! Learn about people like George Washington, who crossed the ice-packed Delaware River to attack the British at Trenton; the bold Americans who bravely fought against the Barbary pirates; and Andrew Jackson and the miraculous victory at the Battle of New Orleans.

Circumnavigate the globe with Sir Francis Drake, spread the gospel in Africa with David Livingstone, survive the wilds of Jamestown with Captain John Smith, penetrate the wilderness with Daniel Boone, capture Mexico with Hernán Cortes, fight the British with John Paul Jones, and search for gold with Hernando De Soto.

Whether facing a band of Indians with Madeleine; saving lives at sea with Ida Lewis; experiencing the battlefields of the Civil War with Clara Barton, or learning the life story of Louisa May Alcott, you’ll be inspired by the faith, courage, and devotion of these Ten Girls From History!
