The cover we are envisioning is a looking through the ages idea. With a modern foreground that young adults in the 9-15 year old range would find enticing to pick up and read. Then looking through a portal or door or arch or picture frame to something that would fit the period of the 1820 in the US - I have included several ideas but they are low resolution so other will need to be found.

I am open to other ideas - It needs to appeal to the younger crowd while introducing the history. We see this being used in the classroom for students so it can't turn off teachers and administrators.

Thanks for your help and please let me know if you have questions or I have missed something.
