In 1776; Delaware declared independence from both England and Pennsylvania. Originally known as the Three Lower Counties of Pennsylvania; the First State was instrumental in the fight to form a new republic. The Marquis de Lafayette; Nathanael Greene and George Washington all made trips to the state. Caesar Rodney's ride and the Battle of Cooch's Bridge are legendary; but the state has many unsung heroes. Citizens from every village; town; crossroads and marsh risked their lives to support their beliefs. Author Kim Burdick offers the carefully documented story of ordinary people coping with extraordinary circumstances.

A Good ReadBy Pickie ReaderMizu-san is a good read for anyone curious about the life of a war photographer in WWII; Korean conflict and Vietnam; as well as freelancing in the 1950's-60's. Mr. Waters tells it like it was; in his eyes and words; with no mincing around. This reader appreciated the openness; clarity; even the brevity of this book; which tells a lot in its few pages. Waters does not hide his sometimes blunt opinions of people; situations; or even himself; but these opinions do not blur his fascinating snapshots of war and the world. You won't hear his stories in history class; and the photos are amazing.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great read about an incredibly eventful life!By C.
