14 Books About the American Revolutionary War

I love learning about history. And it is something we should expose kids to as well. We have a fun collection at home of books about the American Revolutionary War.

I have these books because I want them to have access to the information when we are learning about the subject. I have them read a few of these books around the 4th of July. I want them to understand why that date is so important.

Plus these books went so great with the American Revolutionary War Pack.
