Description

The White House was built by many hands, each with their own story to tell. From slave hands who worked tirelessly towards freedom, to free hands that laboured together as one, every brick played its part in creating this iconic symbol of America. The building of the White House is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of those who worked on it. Many slaves were able to purchase their freedom after earning money from learning a trade through their work, a remarkable achievement that speaks to their determination and skill. This book tells the story of how the White House was created, brick by brick, with hands working together towards a common goal.
