Paul Robert Walker has written more than twenty-five books for readers of all ages, on  subjects ranging from the American civil rights movement and western experience to folklore, baseball, and the Italian Renaissance. His most recent books for young readers include three award-winning volumes from National Geographic: REMEMBER LITTLE ROCK, REMEMBER THE ALAMO, and REMEMBER LITTLE BIGHORN. Paul also writes for adults, including his ambitious narrative nonfiction work, THE FEUD THAT SPARKED THE RENAISSANCE.
