When I taught middle school, I really liked using many of Ann Rinaldi's books. "Mine Eyes Have Seen" is about the raid on Harper's Ferry. "Wolf By the Ears" is about one of Sally Hemings' and Thomas Jefferson's daughters (well there could have been a daughter, maybe). There's another one about the Civil War, but I can't remember the name off-hand.

Not sure if you'd consider them grade level but as far as I'm concerned nothing beats the Museum in a Book series. My 7th graders who aren't even studying US history yet and fascinated by them. It is great to see them unfold the gigantic copy of the Declaration and try to read it.
