Dit boek (hardcover) is onderdeel van de TREDITION CLASSICS serie.
De makers van deze serie zijn verbonden door hun passie voor
literatuur en gedreven met de bedoeling om alle publieke domein
boeken weer gedrukte vorm beschikbaar te maken - wereldwijd. De
meeste geprinte TREDITION CLASSICS titels zijn al decennia
verdwenen uit de boekenkasten. Bij tredition geloven wij dat een
goed boek nooit uit de mode is en dat zijn waarde voor eeuwig is.
Deze boeken serie helpt bij het behouden van de literatuur
schatten. Het draagt bij in het behouden van prachtige
wereldliteratuur werken.

1921 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory
biography. 'American Hero Stories' is an educational book on the

contains five accounts of voyagers and explorers, ranging from
Columbus to Lewis and Clark. Eva March Tappan was born on 26th

began her literary career writing about famous characters from
history in works such as 'In the Days of William the Conqueror'
(1901), and 'In the Days of Queen Elizabeth' (1902). She then
developed an interest in children's books, writing her own and
publishing collections of classic tales.
