Jefferson Davis: Leader of the Confederacy

In this compelling biography, readers are introduced to Davis as a historical figure to learn from, rather than simply a character on the losing side of the Civil War. From his family life to his political career, the story of Davis's life is included in age-appropriate detail with historical context. The engaging content gives readers a chance to see the divided nation through another lens, encouraging further research of a complex time in U.S. history.
