Everyone would agree the one and only Declaration of
Independence deservesthe best. After all, it's at the heart of our
country. But since it was signed in 1776, the Declaration has had
as many ups and downs as the United States itself. It has been
rolled up, copied, hidden away and traveled by horseback, sailing
vessel, mail truck, railroad car and military tank. After being
front and center of a new nation, it has escaped two British
invasions and survived for more than two centuries of both peaceful
times and devastating wars.What a journey And it remains proudly
the one and only Declaration of Independence.
Judith St. George, author of "So You Want to Be President"?, and
Will Hillenbrand give readers a witty and wonderfully illustrated
true story of the invincible Declaration, giving heroic testimony
to the grit and determination of the country itself.A fun and
fascinating way to share the history of the document that gave the
American people their freedom.
