About this listen

Learn about the origin, creation, and history of one of America’s most iconic landmarks—Mount Rushmore—in this detailed history for young readers, part of the beloved Where Is? series. The perfect way to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary!

It was the early 1920s when world-famous sculptor Gutzon Borglum traveled to the Black Hills of South Dakota to plan out his next project—a sixty-foot-high likenesses of four presidents carved completely on a granite cliffside—that would take over fourteen years to complete. Who decided which presidents should be represented? Why were the Black Hills chosen as the location? And how was this immense project sculpted so high above the ground? Young historians will find the answers to all these questions and more in this detailed, easy-to-comprehend biography of one man’s life, his magnificent obsession, and one of America’s greatest symbols.
