Meet our ninth US president before his famous victory over the native chief Tecumseh in the Battle of Tippecanoe. Young readers will thrill to "Billy" Harrison's dramatic rescue of his sister, Sally, as she struggles to stay afloat after falling into a river, and admire his courage when he captures a British soldier at the age of eight. Find out more about these and the rest of Billy's boyhood adventures.
Praised by parents, teachers, and historians, the Young Patriots Series is an ideal way to sweep today's young readers into history.
