Farmer George refers to George III of Great Britain not George Washington, get your facts straight. Also, in addition to be a traitor to his country Washington owned more slaves than likely anyone else in the world.
What? You use this in a classroom? Sorry but as a teacher you should know that 1) Washington was not a farmer, his slaves did all that work and 2) this want a farm
Why would a slave plantation be called a "farm"? Do we call Auscwitz a "work camp" or a "death camp"?
Thats right, thats the level its on. 100s of slaves were forced to work there and many are burried in unmarked graves.
Thanks! You made me realize I have to do another for a book I just turned in - Damon, Pythias and the Test of Friendship. Ancient Greek culture . . . what music do I use? Hmmm.
You are a very talented artist!!!...do usell or reprint these pictures in a large version, like a poster/wall picture?...I will look into buying that book!!!!!
