The History Twister has traveled through time to alter the outcome of America's most famous duel between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. Enter the History Club: four wildly different middle school students who together have the power to restore history and save the world from the ensuing chaos.
Interesting premise, and Hamilton comes off as super wise. One does wonder why middle schoolers are chosen to travel through time to save the space/time continuum, but save it they do. They will obviously be off for another adventure. The art is well done and there are some nice nuggets of actual history. Background knowledge of Hamilton would be helpful to the reader, but could be a great jumping off place for learning more. Members of the History Club come from different races and backgrounds.
