    Summary: 
    "Step back in time to the birth of America and meet the real-life rebels who made this country free! On a hot summer day near Philadelphia in 1776, Thomas Jefferson sat at his desk and wrote furiously until early the next morning. He was drafting the Declaration of Independence, a document that would sever this country's ties with Britain and announce a new nation--The United States of America.

Discover the true story of one of the most radical and uplifting documents in history and follow the action that fueled the Revolutionary War"--
