Book Description

Knowledge in a Nutshell November 20, 2001
"Knowledge in a Nutshell on America" tells over 500 fascinating fun facts about America, including little-known facts about U.S. Presidents, the states, patriotic songs, treasures and includes The American's Creed. It's a perfect handbook on America.

Find out about the real Uncle Sam and his boyhood friend--an amazing story. The stories behind "God Bless America" and "America the Beautiful," how the Pledge of Allegiance accidentally became a daily school tradition; how America got its name -- by chance; why the White House was painted white and surprising facts about "The Star-Spangled Banner."

This is another book in the "Knowledge in a Nutshell" series of fun facts and anecdotes that make these books a treasure chest for trivia and reference buffs.
