From the jacket flap

In colonial America, hand-painted, wood-crafted signs hung from posts outside public houses along the bumpy dirt roads connecting the original thirteen colonies, welcoming guests for food and rest after a long journey. Here, Wendell Minor appropriates these symbols of respite and hospitality to create a fully illlustrated alphabet compendium celebrating the birth of our great nation. Assigning to each letter an essential element of young America, Minor's bright illustrations and expressive prose introduce readers to the rich history behind the colonies and Revolutionary War. Opening with "Acts," Minor introduces the British tax that incited unrest amongst American patriots. Closing with "Zane," readers learn about the daughter of Patriot Colonel Zane, Elizabeth, who saves the day by delivering more gunpowder for the deprived troops at Fort Henry. In between, Paul Revere, Mohawk Chief Joseph Brant, the Boston Tea Party, and the Liberty Bell, and many more people, places, and events grace these pages. A chronological timeline at the end if the alphabet fills out the picture painted by Minor's fine color works.
