Peter was the grandson of the author, and he started to write the history of the US in such a way so that it would be entertaining, and useful for a young boy. As such, this is history that is perfectly acceptable for any and all young adults...but it is more than that, it is history that is so well-written and interesting that it would be a fine choice for any of us.
