For those young people especially that are looking for a way to make history come alive you have to look no further than the Lagos Brothers and what they are doing through the Sons of Liberty series. In the new book DEATH AND TAXES we are able to see the brothers bring back the heroes we have to love as well as give us some bits of history that come alive for us through the colorful illustrations and great storyline.For me the highlights this time around were the way that all of us are revealed to be under some form of authority, and that authority can take the form of physical bondage as well as figurative bondage. For Graham and Brody we are faced with real choices about the world that they see themselves a part of. Will they allow the injustices going on around them to go unchallenged or will they rise to the occasion and look for a way that they can be a part of the change and good they want to see.Stepping away from the sometimes serious messages of the book we also see that we are not in the battle against what is wrong alone. There are others that can rise up for our cause, and sometimes our brave actions may be just what they need to move forward themselves.As an entertaining read with a subtle education feel, DEATH AND TAXES is the kind of book that brings history alive as few have been able to do. Not to give this book a chance would be choosing to rob yourself of not only a great read but a real literary gift.
