U.S. History History Coloring Book Collection

Travel back in time over 300 years for an authentic glimpse of typical occupations practiced in colonial America from 1650 to 1800. Artist Peter Copeland makes it possible in this carefully researched and meticulously rendered coloring book. Forty lively scenes—five of them double-page—depict a variety of tradespeople and crafters: the watercart driver, who supplied townspeople with fresh water daily for a small fee; the town crier, a colonial version of today's TV newscaster; the tinker, a traveling repairman; and many more.

Early American craftsmen made a vital contribution to the development of this country, and they are still a very important part of our heritage. This book provides illustrations, rendered for coloring, of 22 crafts that were once widespread in America but are now rarely seen.

From Johannes Gutenberg's fifteenth-century printing press to Charles Hard Townes' relatively recent development of the laser, this fascinating coloring book encompasses five centuries of technology. Forty-five finely detailed drawings depict inventors and their historically important devices, comprising an inspiring survey of advances in science and industry.

This exciting collection of easy-to-color drawings takes you on a cross-country journey during which you'll visit famous, man-made landmarks—from the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor to the Pearl Harbor Memorial in Hawaii.
