Summary

"In the Black Hills of South Dakota is one of the most striking U.S. monuments: Mount Rushmore. There, the faces of four American presidents were carved into solid rock, forever memorialized. Today, it's a major tourist attraction too. Readers of this fascinating volume will learn why these presidents were chosen, why this site was selected, and how the enormous feat was finished. Stunning images throughout the accessible text relay just how massive the carving is as well as lend support to the most important curricular concepts"-- Provided by publisher.
