Saratoga National Historical Park Junior Ranger Program

About the author
William Valosin is best known as the author of Saratoga National Historical Park Junior Ranger Program, an educational booklet created to help children explore one of the most important Revolutionary War sites in the United States. The book has been distributed through Project Gutenberg, which has helped make it widely available to new readers.
Reliable public sources also identify him as a park ranger at Saratoga National Historical Park in Stillwater, New York. That background fits the spirit of his writing: practical, welcoming, and focused on helping visitors connect with the landscape, the history of the 1777 Saratoga campaign, and the experience of learning by doing.
Although not much biographical detail is readily available in major literary reference sources, the available record suggests a writer whose work grows directly out of public service and historical interpretation. For listeners interested in American history, his work offers a friendly doorway into the people, places, and events that shaped the early United States.
