Another way of looking at our flag
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book provides the reader or the viewer with several ways of looking at the history of the American Flag. First it is an excellent history of the flag; but it also adds an added dimension, how the flag or elements of the flag have been used as art through the ages. If you are like many people, and believe that the star pattern in the flag in the canton has not changed much over the years, this book will provide a real eye opener. The art work is excellent. This book works on many levels; you can look at the book many times and see something new every time. If you love flags you have to have this book.
The title says it all.
