Implications of Literature: Pioneer Level

The Pioneer Level of the Implications of Literature series integrates the history of the United States with literature that dovetails with the American experience. It intentionally presents opposing viewpoints on significant issues, such as Charles Lindbergh's perspective on isolationism vs. Dorothy Thompson's position on basic human rights. The Pioneer Level is enhanced by an entertaining novella-length excerpt from Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, as well as by a rich mélange of the finest short fiction and nonfiction selections, adding up to a delightful approach to the study of American literature. Hardback, Publisher recommends this for Grade 11.
