## Description

Step back in time to the birth of the United States of America and meet the real-life rebels who made this country free!
On a hot summer day near Philadelphia in 1776, Thomas Jefferson sat at his desk and wrote furiously until early the next morning. He was drafting the Declaration of Independence, a document that would sever this country's ties with Britain and announce a new nation—The United States of America. Colonists were willing to risk their lives for freedom, and the Declaration of Independence made that official. Discover the true story of one of the most radical and uplifting documents in history and follow the action that fueled the Revolutionary War.

Great for kids. Well written with pictures...to push the points home. Parents must read to the children, and explain the history of the FOUNDING FATHERS.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 米国独立宣言の英書は山ほどあるが、この本はとても詳細で面白い。
*by  on Reviewed in Japan 11 July 2018*

米国がどんな国か、その出自と本来的な性質を知るには[独立宣言]を読むのが一番近道だとレビュアーは考えています。July 4, 1776.の全文はネットで原文を読めますので、まずそれを読んだほうがよいでしょう。独立宣言の全文は本書には載っていないからです。本書は米国人向けに書かれており、独立宣言の文章は既に知っていることが前提として書かれているようです。「アメリカ独立宣言」の和訳は福沢諭吉訳がキンドル版でゼロ円で現在（201807時点）は買えますが、「英国王、我諸州ニ内乱ヲ起サシメテ」という感じの古文調です。でも内容は容易につかめます。原文を読んだあとで、背景や当時の前後の情勢が知りたくなったら本書が役立ちます。「独立宣言」は英国王から搾り取られる"colonist"：入植者としての立場から書かれていますので、大英帝国が如何に植民地を搾取弾圧する悪の帝国だったかということがよくわかります。著者マイケル・ハリスの英文はとても読みやすい英語です。
