*Brand New* Paperback "What's the Deal?: Jefferson, Napoleon, and the Louisiana Purchase" by Rhoda Blumberg.
Book Description (taken from Amazon):
What's The Deal is 144 pages with about 60 illustrations taking up a half page or full page. These are paintings, ink drawings, and newspaper cartoons. The book begins with a six page list of a "case of characters," with a 2-sentence thumbnail description of each, for example, Rene-Robert La Salle (French explorer who claimed the Louisiana Territory in 1682), James Madison and Robert Livingston (negotiated the Louisiana Purchase Treaty), King Louis XV (gave Louisiana Territory to Spain, that is, to his cousin King Charles III of Spain), and Napoleon (took back the Louisiana Territory and sold it to the U.S.).
Although What's The Deal was written for the "school market," the writing style is never condescending, and there is plenty for any adult to learn.
