Declaration of Independence Mini-Book Ornament

Including artful illustrations of the signers alongside the full document in a hardback stamped mini-book ornament, this gift is perfect for cherishing our shared values of freedom, democracy and liberty for all during the holiday season. Drafted by Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28, 1776, the Declaration of Independence summarizes America's founding political philosophy. At once a cherished symbol of liberty and an expression of Jefferson's monumental talents as a writer, the document captures in unforgettable phrases the ideals of individual liberty that formed the backbone of American's Revolutionary movement. In setting forth these self-evident truths alongside a list of grievances against King George's Britain, the Declaration of Independence justified the breaking of ties with Mother England and the formation of a new country.
