Very fine as new. Dust jacket is protected by a Brodart cover. “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.
