This is just a cool book, as it is filled with tidbits for the historically-challenged like myself. See who was technically the first President of the United States (a man by the name of Huntington), which statesmens’ homes were burnt for signing the Declaration (most) and how one representative stricken with cancer rode all night by horseback to cast a crucial vote on independence (Caesar Rodney). A great look at the lives of the men who served in the Continental Congress.
