LibriVox recording of The Child's Book of American Biography, by Mary Stoyell Stimpson. Read by Laura Victoria.

In every country there have been certain men and women whose busy lives have made the world better or wiser. The names of such are heard so often that every child should know a few facts about them. It is hoped the very short stories told here may make boys and girls eager to learn more about these famous people. (from the Forward of the text)
