"In this title, a tour guide presents not only the basic facts about the Lincoln Memorial but also information not found in most history textbooks. The text details the reasons for the memorial; how, when, and by whom it was designed and constructed; its dedication; and its subsequent place in history. Other titles in the American Symbols series include Our U.S. Capitol, also by Firestone (2008), and Uncle Sam by Anastasia Suen (2008)."
