This study guide is designed to accompany the title A History of US, Book 3, Revised 3rd Edition by Joy Hakim. The text covers 1735-1791, beginning with the circumstances leading up to the American Revolution, and concluding with the early years of the infant United States of America and the development of the Constitution. This guide is age-flexible and can be used as desired for family-style or individual history study but is recommended for approximately 5th-8th grades. Questions are intentionally designed to require the student to not simply race through reading this text but to stop, to consider details, to consider how the stories of history are being told and why they are being told in this way.
