About this item
Basher's America is your perfect primer ahead of the 59th presidential election! Every president, from George Washington to the winner of the 2016 election, has his own entry and speaks directly to the reader. Meet James Monroe, known as the "Last Cocked Hat" because he pranced around in an outdated wig, hat, and breeches, and find out how Ronald Reagan helped end the Cold War. Then brush up on all 50 states (plus DC and the six territories) -- from Alabama to Wyoming, each state boasts about why it is special, dishes fun facts not found elsewhere, and waxes poetics about its motto, state bird, flag, state flower, and more! What's more, there's a new chapter in which Basher gives key political concepts such as Caucus, FLOTUS, and Super Tuesday a face, voice, and personality.
