Had to wait until today for #PhiladelphiaFreedom because this book was in my classroom. It gives quick biographies of the men who built the Constitution in Philly.

North Carolina Founder Fun Facts:

Hugh Williamson was a brilliant doctor who studied in Utrecht!

Richard Spaight became governor, founded UNC Chapel Hill, and died in a duel!

William Blount was a total dirtbag who stole money and land and eventually committed treason!
