Please join me in welcoming Ann Bausum to our forum. Her critically acclaimed book, White Lies: How the South Lost the Civil War, Then Rewrote the History, was chosen by BookBrowse members as the best Young Adult read of the year.
Ann writes history for readers of all ages. Her books for young people help upper elementary, middle school, and high school students discover the drama and significance of stories from the past that may barely be presented in textbooks. In 2015 her adopted home state named her the year’s Notable Wisconsin Children’s Author. Two years later, the body of her work received national recognition with the Nonfiction Award of the Children’s Book Guild of Washington, D.C.
