Meet 50 trailblazers who made the United States what it is today in this bright, fact-packed biography book. With one trailblazer from every state, you'll discover how Rosa Parks from Alabama fought for civil rights, how Barack Obama from Hawaii became the USA's first Black president, how Margaret Murie from Alaska pioneered the American environmentalist movement and how Betty Ford from Michigan improved treatment for drug addiction.
