The Hatfields and the McCoys
The American Civil War was a time of great upheaval in our nation. Slavery was becoming a major issue, and the decision over what to do formed a great rift in our nation. The story of the Hatfields and McCoys demonstrates just how high emotions ran between the two sides. One man’s choice to fight for the Union when his neighbors have joined forces with the Confederacy launches two families into an infamous feud that lasts for half a century and causes many deaths.
Molly Pitcher
The story of Molly Pitcher highlights a side of the American Revolution not often touched upon in history books—the role of women.

Historians think this could be a compilation of many true stories of women who helped out in the war, specifically of Mary Ludwig Hays McCauley or Margaret Corbin. This lesson in history and courage that gives a different perspective on events is a welcome addition to any library collection.
