Great history of Oglethorpe for child or adult
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
My eight year-old "history buff" enjoyed this book very much. I enjoyed the chapters I read with him and the interesting facts he reported as he read about the life and experiences of Oglethorpe -- his progressive views on slavery, his friendships with Native Americans, his work to promote the establishment of Georgia as a colony, the conflicts he encountered.
It gave a lot of good information and facts.
