Give Me Liberty: The Uncompromising Statesmanship of Patrick Henry by David J. Vaughan

Leaders in Action Series

By Various Authors
Level 10
Review:

The books in this series that my family has read have been an absolute treasure. My teenage children found these biographies fascinating. These books take a decidedly religious approach to the lives of great historical leaders, focusing on their character and faith. This well-researched series features excellent writing that is compelling, clear, and easily understood. I think children ages 12 and older will be surprised at how interesting and inspiring they find these nonfiction books to be! This is very worthwhile reading and inspired me in so many ways: to seek and value knowledge, to be humble, to have deeper faith, to give more service, and more!

Books in this series we have reviewed and recommend: Give Me Liberty: The Uncompromising Statesmanship of Patrick Henry, Apostle of Liberty: The World-Changing Leadership of George Washington
