About this title

From the Publisher:

Its George Washingtons first day on the job-what advice would you give our new nations first president? And what might you say to Lewis and Clark, two explorers lighting out for the unmapped territory west of the wide Mississippi? What warning would you give the great Indian leader Tecumseh, as he prepares to fight for the land and freedom of his people?
