Book Reflections

  1. What are the goals or themes of this book?
  2. Describe the sources that the historian used to write this book. Whose voice(s) are being heard through these sources? Why do you think the historian chose to present these voices/tell this story this way?
  3. How is the story similar to or different from what is presented in the history textbook your students use? Does it change your understanding of this historical period or of historical events?

Please write your 2-page reflection based on these questions, and post it here.
