Much of what we know about past leaders, celebrities, and those with lives of note comes from the person themselves! Autobiographies have long been a way for those in the spotlight--or who lived through extraordinary circumstances--to share their side of the story, their view of history, and of course, their ideas! The carefully chosen main text and primary source examples in this book appeals to both students in need of review and struggling readers with its achievable language and accessible content. Both modern and historical autobiographies are included, accompanied by images of each.
