Excerpt from Building the Nation: Stories of How Our Forefathers Lived and What They Did to Make Our Country an United OneOne of the first things undertaken at the opening of this new era was the unfurling of the emblem of what the people of this country stood for, the American flag. Those stars and stripes tell all men the story of the nation and its development, the red of courage, the blue of constancy, the white of pure and unselfish purpose, are all there, as well as the thirteen stripes for the original colonies who first banded together in a common cause, and a star for each of the constellation of states that now compose the nation.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
