We continue our tour of New York City and visit the modern and industrious Wall Street, the financial capital of the world. Here, we climb the steps of Federal Hall, the first capitol building of the United States, and the site of the inauguration of America’s first president, George Washington. We visit St. Paul’s Chapel. Outside the city, we visit the Saratoga battlefields and West Point. We also learn about the infamous traitor, Benedict Arnold.
