“We’ve Got A Job” by Cynthia Levinson

“We’ve Got A Job” by Cynthia Levinson is a wonderful book chronicling a very difficult time in American history.  Levinson present the information in easy to read sections that keep the interest of the reader.  Each section includes quotes and first hand accounts of the events and makes the reader feel a part of the action. 

The emotion of the day is clearly presented with a sense of clarity and honesty.  The reader can almost feel themselves in that same situation.  The photography depicts each event as it is unfolding and adds to the emotion of the text.    Each chapter and section is brief enough that a young person can choose a section and feel a sense of accomplishment and then proceed to the next section.   

This is a good cover-to-cover read and it may also be used as a reference book for information about specific events or people.  I enjoyed this book tremendously myself as it is packed with great information as well as stories from the past.
