Famous First Facts about American Politics


Book Description

For historians, students, scholars, librarians, and teachers, this is a comprehensive information source, and the perfect first stop for political research. General readers will also find it an irresistible browse, exploring 'firsts' from the earliest events in American history (such as the founding of the Iroquois Confederacy by Haionhwat'ha and Deganawidah sometime before 1550), to the ground-breaking events that took place at the end of the millennium (such as the first First Lady elected to public office, in 2000).
