Star-Spangled Banner : Our Nation and Its Flag (hardcover) (November 2001 printing)
Star-Spangled Banner : Our Nation and Its Flag (paperback) (November 2001 printing)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
"Every wave of the flag is a pulse of history," says author Margaret
Sedeen. Her insightful book, filled with facts, anecdotes, and compelling
images, highlights milestones in our nation’s history and documents the
flag’s role in these events.
Covering the evolution of the Stars and Stripes, the flag in war and
diplomacy, the flag in exploration, and the flag in daily life, Sedeen’s
informative text and vivid images trace the history of the United States
from its dramatic birth to its rise as a superpower and leader in world
diplomacy. Readers will witness the trials and triumphs of explorers who
ventured across western frontiers, to the Poles, and beyond the pull of
Earth’s gravity. Vivid accounts of everyday American life summon patriotic
pride and stir the imagination.
Through this unfolding story of our nation and its flag, Star-Spangled
Banner evokes the full definition of patriotism and what it means to be an
American: our love of country, our responsibilities as citizens, and our
shared traditions and ideals.
