Civil War School Books-1800's School Spellers for school aged children-sold separately
Civil War School readers, arithmetic, and spellers from the early to mid-1800's. Such a great gift idea for a teacher or educator. The children of Abolitionist Martin Robison Delany, Benjamin Franklin, Betsy Ross, Abraham Lincoln, Jessie James, Stonewall Jackson, or Lewis Howard Latimer would have used school books just like these. Maybe they actually used these because they were often recycled due to shortages due to war times.
