The American flag has been raised high in wartime triumph
and peacetime celebration; sewn lovingly onto quilts, caps,
pillows, and bags; appropriated by popular culture; and
faithfully honored every Fourth of July. This vibrant
collection of 100 Stars and Stripes artifacts ranges from
Civil War-era banners and Native American braided moccasins
to an early 20th-century "friendship" kimono and original
flag art by several of the world's leading designers.
Destined to captivate folk-art aficionados, history buffs,
and collectors, 100 AMERICAN FLAGS provides a stunning
visual history of America's most treasured symbol.
