"Crispus Attucks" by Ellen LaBrecque tells the compelling story of a pivotal figure in American history. As a Black man of mixed heritage in colonial America, Attucks played a crucial role in the events leading to the American Revolution. The narrative highlights his involvement in the Boston Massacre, where he became the first martyr of the American fight for independence. Through vivid illustrations and engaging prose, the book explores themes of courage, sacrifice, and the struggle for freedom, making Attucks an enduring symbol of resistance against oppression and racial injustice in the foundation of the United States.
