You’re invited to the official launch party for our biggest book of the year!
Have you ever wondered… Did Christopher Columbus REALLY discover America? What REALLY happened at the first Thanksgiving? Did Paul Revere REALLY shout “The British are coming!”? It’s time to pull the curtain back on these well-known myths to find out what REALLY happened and where these stories we’ve heard over and over again came from.
Join us along with other movers and shakers in the publishing community to celebrate information literacy and America’s 250th anniversary with this exploration of the best-known stories about the founding of the United States.
