• First Guide to Government
  Basic introductions to significant U.S. documents. Each slim book offers two to four lines of large-print text and one illustration per page, making these complex subjects easy to comprehend. Unfamiliar words ("amendment," "article," "preamble," "colony," "ratify") are in bold and included in the glossary; some are defined within the body of the text. The books are illustrated with contemporary and archival photos, average-quality reproductions of documents and artwork, a few simple maps, and a graph. Each title also includes a "Find Out More" section, which includes the location of the document. Purchase these first guides where needed.
