Resumen:
The Star-Spangled Banner: The Making of an American Icon : More than just the tale of one flag and one song, The Star-Spangled Banner is the story of how Americans - often in times of crisis - have expressed their patriotism and defined their identity through the "broad stripes and bright stars" of our preeminent national symbol, a tradition that still thrives today. The original flag that inspired Francis Scott Key has been cared for by the Smithsonian since 1907. The dramatic story of this flag - and of the Smithsonian's efforts to save it for posterity - are told here in this lavishly illustrated book that also explores the broader meaning of the flag in America. NOTE: This is a Scratch and Dent version and accordingly MAY NOT have a dust jacket.
