How many cans of Drag Net to accomplish that coif?
I hear that Apple’s Siri does the voiceover work for the audiobook.

Did she include the part where Callista Pryne, intern to Lewis, broke up Lewis’ second marriage and became the 3rd Mrs. Lewis?

That sure looks like a happy native American to me.
Let me guess, Lewis and Clark where Reagan Republicans. It’s the only way anyone can be heroic these days.
Who could have foreseen that the illustrations would be creepy?
There’s that “Manifest Destiny” thing rearing its head again. It roughly translates to “this is the greatest nation and civilization in history, was founded by white people, built by white people and belongs to white people because we are the chosen people and this is supposed to be a white people country…and we had God’s ok to take it from whoever else had it first, just as we have God’s blessing to continue to try to expand it via corporate imperialism and military adventurism in brown people countries.” It goes hand in hand with the other shorthand for the entire concept: “American exceptionalism.” Callista has nothing to add to civilization but a carbon footprint and a daily dollop of excrement in the sewer system.

Lewis and Clark?
We have them to thank for the liberal latte-sipping, Volvo-driving, Benghazi-enabling socialist weed-smoking west coast!
Why does Callista hate America?

I always think of do’s like that as a hair helmet.

I have to doubt the accuracy of a book about American history that has an elephant on it’s cover.

Entire continent, eh? I think Mexico and Canada would beg to differ.
These fucking imbeciles write children’s books because their own level of understanding of the subject matter is identical. The lightbulb in her attic blew out in 3rd grade, like with so many conservative idiots.

Maybe if the GOP would get out of the business of revising and mutilating our History we could teach it properly.

OMG…I can’t get past that yellow and blood red rictus atop the story. I hope to God there isn’t an author photo on the back flap of the kiddie book…talk about childhood trauma.

Manifest destiny sans the broken treaties, smallpox, and other atrocities, big and small, committed by the US Gov’t and settlers alike. Sounds like just what we need to indoctrinate little Fascist robots.
