From Battlefield to White House: The Story of Zachary Taylor For Kids (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

He never expected to become president. In fact, he had never even voted in a presidential election before winning one himself. Known to soldiers and citizens alike as "Old Rough and Ready," he built his reputation not in political halls but on dusty battlefields, leading with grit, courage, and a surprising sense of humility.

This book takes readers into the remarkable life of a man who rose from a modest farm in Virginia to the highest office in the land. Kids will follow his journey through the early days as a career soldier, his leadership in the Mexican-American War, and the unlikely path that led him to the White House. Along the way, they'll see how he faced fierce national debates, including the growing conflict over slavery in new territories, and how he worked to keep the Union from breaking apart.

Told in a lively, kid-friendly style, this story reveals a leader who cared more about doing what was right than what was popular, a man who valued action over speeches and service over show. It's a story of resilience, duty, and the kind of leadership that still inspires today-perfect for young readers curious about the people who shaped America.
