Summary: Finally A Flag Book That Holds Your Interest
Review: I give this book 5 stars because I have read many books on the history of our Flag and none of them even begin to compare to this book. This book has many interesting facts and stories about our Flag. If you are a Flag nut, this is the book for you. I highly recommend it!

Summary: A interesting little book.
Review: This is a pretty interesting book for vexillophiles (thats a person intrested in the study of flags). The author takes you on a journey from the early days up through 9/11 and the genesis of our American flag. Along the way are many sidebars, some with more tidbits of information. some of the sidebars are short pieces written by various famous people on their anecdotes about the flag. It is this part that caused me to lower my rating from a 5 to a 4. Not very many of the personal anedotes were interesting. The exception would be the excerpt from a speech by Sen. John McCain on his experiences as a Vietnam P.O.W. All in all though it is an intriguing book which you could probably read in about 1 night.
