Summary

Mount Rushmore is a well-known symbol of the United States. Carved from stone in South Dakota, it honors four U.S. presidents. But for some Native Americans, the symbol has caused pain and anger. Take a trip back in time to find out how this work of art was made and why it holds a tangled place in our country's history. --Adapted from back cover
