Some books put history at your fingertips. The Founding of the United States puts it right in your hands, with 12 cleverly inserted, fully removable facsimile documents central to American history, including Revolutionary War maps, George Washington's handwritten inaugural address, and Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence, with notes by Benjamin Franklin and John Adams. From the French and Indian Wars to the Jacksonian era, this lavishly illustrated interactive volume traces the stirring drama of a nation's birth.
