<p dir="ltr">This is the story of Mount Rushmore. <strong id= "docs-internal-guid-97afc4a6-7fff-217f-51ec-f24ee6fe9c67"></strong>Carved high in the cliffs of South Dakota, you can spot the faces of four U.S. Presidents. Every year, over 2 million tourists travel to see this famous site. But few visitors know the whole story behind the giant sculpture. It began with one man's dream and quickly became a tale of conflict and struggle. By the time the first chisel struck the mountain, the project was already steeped in controversy. It would be a 14-year battle to carve the enormous stone presidents. </p> <div id="comp-k2jg3csi" class="XUUsC _2S73V"></div> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">About Honest History</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Honest History creates award-winning books, magazines, and this show for young historians across the world.
