The Central Park Statues Speak seamlessly integrates tales from America’s past into a fun and informative dialogue between high school students and near-mythical historical figures. Incorporating technology and today’s high paced society, George Robinson has found an interactive and thrilling way to engage today’s students with the past, by bringing it into the present. The passages contain all the information of primary sources, or textbooks, but is presented in an easily digestible way that allows anyone interested in history to dive right in. While these figures are no longer with us, Dr. Robinson’s book allows us to imagine what it would be like to talk to them, and in doing so, keeps their stories alive.
