DOWNLOAD EBOOK →It is Washington, August 24, 1814, and the president’s house is burning. Percival Mouse and his wife, Annie, have known for years this was coming, and they are not unprepared. They have risked everything to live in this time and place, hoping to save their present and future families. Their enemy, Balfour, a red dog of war, killed Percy’s father and has arrived with Admiral Cockburn, commander of the English troops, hoping to destroy the entire mouse family. This is how life in the president’s house is for one mouse family. Rod Harrington’s Percival, a Mouse in the President’s House combines fantasy and history to create an entertaining and interesting book. The Mouse family finds itself involved in historical events and close companions with many important historical figures of the times. Among them is Percival’s friend, Benjamin Banneker, America’s first black man of science, who uses his knowledge of the universe and the physics of time travel for good, even from beyond his humble grave in Maryland. Readers will find themselves caught up in the history of the United States through the eyes and experiences of some of the country’s smallest citizens.

From births to deaths, weddings to funerals, the White House has seen it all. In Best Little Stories from the White House, author C. Brian Kelly takes us on a tour of the White House's fascinating history, giving us a glimpse of the most memorable presidential moments: Theodore Roosevelt 's children once snuck their pony upstairs in the White House elevator to cheer up their sick brother. Winston Churchill once suffered a minor heart episode while struggling with a stuck window in the White House. John Quincy Adams was known to skinny-dip in the Potomac. Woodrow Wilson liked to chase up and down the White House corridors playing "rooster fighting" with his daughter Nellie.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Disney Theme Parks and America’s National Narratives takes a public history approach to situating the physical spaces of the Disney brand within memory and identity studies. For over 65 years, Disney’s theme parks have been important locations for the formation and negotiation of the collective memory of the American narrative. Disney’s success as one of America’s most prolific storytellers, its rise as a symbol of America itself, and its creation of theme parks that immerse visitors in three-dimensional versions of certain "American" values and historic myths have both echoed and shaped the way the American people see themselves. Like all versions of the American narrative, Disney’s vision serves to reassure us, affirm our shared values, and unite a diverse group of people under a distinctly American identity—or at least, it did. The book shows how the status Disney obtained led the public to use them both as touchstones of identity and as spaces to influence the American identity writ large. This volume also examines the following: • how Disney’s original cartoons and live-action entertainment offerings drew from American folk history and ideals • how their work during World War II cemented them as an American symbol at home and abroad • how the materialization of the American themes already espoused by the brand at their theme parks created a place where collective memory lives • how legitimization by presidents and other national figures gave the theme parks standing no other entertainment space has • how Disney has changed alongside the American people and continues to do so today. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of history, media, cultural studies, American studies and tourism.
