Stephen Puleos American Treasures is a narrative history of Americas secret efforts to hide its founding documents from Axis powers, and its national tradition of uniting to defend the definition of democracy.

A Boston Globe Bestseller

On December 26, 1941, Secret Service agent Harry E. Neal stood on a platform at Washingtons Union Station watching a train chug off into the dark and feeling at once relieved and inexorably anxious. These were dire times. With Hitlers armies plowing across Europe--seizing or destroying historic artifacts at will--and Japans devastating attack on Pearl Harbor just three weeks prior, American officials now feared an enemy attack on Washington, D.C.

So, President Franklin D. Roosevelt set about hiding the countrys valuables. On the train speeding away from Neal sat four plain-wrapped cases containing the documentary history of America--including the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Gettysburg Address--guarded by a battery of agents and bound for safekeeping in the nations most impenetrable hiding place.

American Treasures charts the creation and little-known journeys of these priceless documents. From the risky and audacious adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776 to our modern Fourth of July celebrations, American Treasures shows how the ideas captured in these papers underscore the nations strengths and hopes, and embody its fundamental values of liberty and equality. Stephen Puleo weaves exciting stories of freedom under fire--from the smuggling of these documents out of Washington days before the British burned the capital in 1814, to their covert relocation during World War II--crafting a sweeping history of a nation united to preserve its democracy and the values inherent in its founding documents.
