The Revolution Comes to America by James R. Arnold is a book that shows many illustrations depicting various aspects of the Industrial Revolutions when it was first starting out in the United States. I believe this will be a good chance to show the kids what it would have looked like when discussing it during the lesson.

Account of the decades long war against the Moro tribes of Mindanao. This was the first war against Islamic insurgents. Of the many U. S. military personnel who served in the Philippines during the war was Captain, later General Pershing, who believed that diplomacy and economic development would lead to a more stable peace. However, when necessary, military action was appropriate.

The best book on the topic of insurgency and counterinsurgency I have read. Excellent selections to explicate the main themes, showing how some methods of counterinsurgency succeeded as well as dissecting the problems in the ones that failed.
Begins with the U.S. dealing with the insurrection in the Philippines at the turn of the 20th century and continues into modern era with special focus on Algeria from 1954-62.
If you are looking for a readable yet scholarly commentary on the topic, I strongly recommend this work.… (mere)

Excellent book on the 2nd Cavalry and its service in Texas against the Comanche. The documentation is very good and the author makes the story very readable. The author brings the story like a novel and keeps the readers interest. Recommend this to fill in the gaps of pre-Civil War history.
