520    "Today the Declaration of Independence is one of the 
       United States' most heavily guarded treasures, but during 
       the War of 1812 it would have been destroyed if not for 
       one man whose story has nearly been forgotten by time. 
       Come along on this historic adventure and learn how one 
       ordinary clerk did a truly extraordinary thing. As a clerk
       for the State Department, Stephen Pleasonton spent his 
       days quietly immersed in paperwork. He never expected to 
       receive an urgent message telling him that the British 
       army was on its way to the capital. And that the documents
       that Stephen was entrusted with-such as the original 
       Declaration of Independence and the original Constitution-
       were all in danger! It fell on Stephen to get our nation's
       most cherished and priceless artifacts safely out of 
       Washington!"--Amazon.com
