Almost as good as being there!

Simply written and beautifully illustrated, A Day in the Life of a Colonial Blacksmith tells about the world of a tradesman, his work, and his tools. Young readers are given a clear understanding of why a blacksmith was so important in the colonies, and how a young apprentice could learn to become a master blacksmith. Ideally, this would be the same type of information a student would have by visiting a living history museum and meeting the blacksmiths. Very well done!
