MEET RUSH LIMBAUGH'S REALLY GOOD PAL, "RUSH REVERE"
Okay, okay, my name's really Rusty--but my friends call me Rush.
Rush Revere. Because I've always been the #1 fan of the coolest
colonial dude ever, Paul Revere. Talk about a rock star--this guy
wanted to protect young America so badly, he rode through those
bumpy, cobblestone-y streets shouting "the British are coming " On
a horse. Top of his lungs. Wind blowing, rain streaming. . . .
Well, you get the picture. But what if you could get the "real"
picture--by actually "going back in time" and seeing with your own
eyes how our great country came to be? Meeting the people who made
it all happen--people like you and me?
Hold on to your pointy triangle hats, because you "can"--with me,
Rush Revere, seemingly ordinary substitute history teacher, as your
tour guide across time "How?" you ask? Well, there's this portal.
And a horse. My "talking" horse named Liberty. And--well, just
trust me, I'll get us there.
We'll begin by joining a shipload of brave families journeying on
the "Mayflower" in 1620. Yawn? I don't think so. 1620 was a pretty
awesome time, and "you'll" experience exactly what "they" did on
that rough, dangerous ocean crossing. Together, we'll ask the
pilgrims all our questions, find out how they live, join them at
the first Thanksgiving, and much more.
So saddle up and let's ride Our exceptional nation is waiting to be
discovered all over again by exceptional young patriots--"like you"
"Rush Revere rides again Saddle up with Rush Limbaugh's really good
pal for a new time-travel adventure."
"Whoa there, young historians Before we go "rush, rush, rushing
"off anywhere, I'd like a moment. I'm Liberty, Rush Revere's
loquacious equine companion--his trusty talking horse Always at the
ready to leap from the twenty-first century into America's past,
that's me. When he says 'Let's go ' I'm so there. I'm jazzed, I'm
psyched, I'm--"
"Ah, excuse me, Liberty?"
"Yeah, Rush?"
"Usually you say 'oh no, not again ' and 'while we're in colonial
Boston, can I try the baked beans?'"
"Okay, fine--you do the talking. I'll just be over here, if you
need me...."
Well, he's sulking now, but I couldn't be your tour guide across
time without Liberty His name says it all: the "freedom" we
celebrate every July Fourth with fireworks and hot dogs (and maybe
some of those baked beans). But how did America "get" free? How did
thirteen newborn colonies tell the British king where he could
stick his unfair taxes?
Jump into the bustling streets of Boston in 1765, where talk of
revolution is growing louder. I said LOUDER. You'll have to SHOUT
to be heard over the angry cries of "Down with the king " and
"Repeal the Stamp Act " that fill the air. You'll meet fierce
supporters of liberty like Samuel Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and my
idol, Paul Revere, as they fearlessly defy British rule. It's an
exciting, dangerous, turbulent, thrilling time to be an
American...and exceptional young patriots like you won't want to
miss a minute. Let's ride
America's #1 radio talk-show host and multi-million-copy #1 "New
York Times" bestselling author presents a book for young readers
