American History Arts & Crafts
Technologies and fads change constantly. One thing, however, has remained the same--the need for self-expression through art. Striking a perfect balance between history and art education, these volumes introduce a third element of hands-on application through a number of engaging craft projects. Each book hones in on a specific time period in American history, spanning the Colonial era, both World Wars, the civil rights movement, and more to provide a thorough look at the way history influenced art and vice versa.
