Excerpt from The True Story of the American Flag So far as regards the adoption of the com bination of stars and stripes, the same asser tion can be safely made. As to the origin of each this research, it is hoped, will prove conclusively, first, that colored stripes repre senting a combination for a common pur pose were used nearly two hundred years before the Declaration of Independence.

Excerpt from The American Flag: Its Origin and History When so proudly we watched for the twilight's last gleaming, The stripes and bright stars through the perilous flight, And the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming And the rocket's red glare, as the bombs burst in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Excerpt from The Evolution of the American Flag Many books have been written on the his tory of the American Flag. The subject pre sents serious difficulties, which have been frankly recognized by such writers as General Schuyler Hamilton, Admiral George H. Preble and P. D. Harrison. Some have copied state ments from their predecessors, and where the story seemed incomplete have filled in the gaps with romance. The present volume adds a few authenticated facts to those which have been heretofore published, but does not concern itself with a detailed refutation of any of the romances which have been injected into the story of the Stars and Stripes. Most of the material for the book was gathered by George Canby, of Philadelphia. His serious work on it may be said to have begun after the death in 1890 of his brother, William J. Canby, who had spent much time on the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Flag Day Manual: Illustrated History of the American Flag The first permanent settlement in Virginia was made at Jamestown in 1607. There float-ed over that settlement not the flag of England, but the Turks' Head Banner of Captain John Smith, the one man to Whom Virginia owed her early prosperity. Though he was himself fond of roving and wild adventure, he taught those early settlers the value of industry and regular habits of life. His flag, however, stood for nothing but his own past history. He hadtaken part in the wars between the Turks and the Christians in southwestern Europe. One day while the Christians were besieging a town, a Turk rode out and challenged any Christian to fight in mortal com bat, for the amusement of the ladies. Smith accepted the challenge, and killed the Turk, as he did another the next day, and then a third. For this success he was granted a coat of arms bearing three Turks' heads in a shield. The historic value of this flag is seldom considered, but the heroic efforts of Captain John Smith of Virginia are cherished in American legend and literature.

Excerpt from Story of the American Flag: With Patriotic Selections and Incidents To the loyal American citizen, wandering in a foreign land no sight is more welcome or more heart-stirring, than the sight of the dear old Stars and Stripes. With what courage and self-devotion does the soldier follow the beloved flag amidst the smoke and carnage of battle, shedding his blood freely to maintain its honor, dying, it may be, in its defense. To every true heart, the flag is not merely a piece of bunting, backed by the power and authority of Government, to enforce its recognition, nor is it merely the emblem of his land, or the insignia of the Nation, but it is the embodiment of a principle, the symbol of those sacred truths handed down to us by the Past as a precious inheritance, and which, if we are not traitors to the trust. Will be as sacredly transmitted by us to the future. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The American Flag: New York State Education Department, Sixth Annual Report Supplemental Volume But the flag of the American Union, now as never before, tells of toleration and of good will, of education and of industry. It has welcomed millions from all nations of the world and has held out the equal chance to all Who came under its folds. Every new star added to its blue field has told of a new state, and every new state tells of more farms cleared, more factories opened, more churches and schools set in motion, and more laws and courts to regulate them all and to assure the equal rights of every one.
