Cassius Clay - A Not-Too-Tall Tale

Cassius Marcellus Clay was one of the roughest, toughest freedom fighters ever. Over the course of a life-long anti-slavery career, he survived assassination attempts and mobs. He won every fight, including one against six men! And after every fight, he came back to keep fighting for the freedom of every American.

He wasn't just rough and tumble, though. He was also a skilled statesman and politician. He helped secure international support for the Union during the Civil War and was a key player in the creation of the Emancipation Proclamation that freed US slaves.

It may sound like a tall tale, but it's not! This is his story, told in simple text and fully illustrated just for young readers. This one is sure to have your little freedom fighter coming back for more!
