Sommario/riassunto |
|
Several myths swirl around George Washington. For example, many think he had wooden teeth. Actually, his teeth were constructed of materials including bone, hippopotamus ivory, human teeth, brass screws, lead, and gold wire! This book dispels this and other commonly held myths about the Founding Fathers. |
