Flag: An American Biography is a vivid narrative that uncovers little-known facts and sheds new light on the more than 200-year history of the American flag. The thirteen-stripe, fifty-star flag is as familiar an American icon as any that has existed in the nation's history. Yet the history of the flag, especially its origins, is cloaked in myth and misinformation. Flag: An American Biography rectifies that situation by presenting a lively, comprehensive, illuminating look at the history of the American flag from its beginnings to today. Journalist and historian Marc Leepson uncovers scores of little-known, fascinating facts as he traces the evolution of the American flag from the colonial period to the twenty-first century. Flag sifts through the historical evidence to--among many other things--uncover the truth behind the Betsy Ross myth and to discover the true designer of the Stars and Stripes. It details the many colorful and influential Americans who shaped the history of the flag. "Flag," as the novelist Nelson DeMille says in his preface, "is not a book with an agenda or a subjective point of view. It is an objective history of the American flag, well researched, well presented, easy to read and understand, and very informative and entertaining." "Our love for the flag may be incomprehensible to others, but at least we now have a comprehensive guide to its unfolding."--The Wall Street Journal

Quit the left-right war, so you can think more! Imagine a conversation between two patriotic Americans about what can be done to solve America's growing list of problems. One is a staunch libertarian and the other a staunch socialist, but they are both still patriotic Americans. What would they believe to be the problems of the nation? Could they agree on solutions to those problems? That is what libertarian-socialism is about-finding solutions to the problems of the United States regardless of ideology. Libertarian-Socialism: American Style examines topics such as the current political process, the social safety net, judicial reform, environmental policies, and global conflict. It considers the various challenges facing this country and offers a new approach as a viable road map toward progress and improvement. This treatise presents an exploration of American politics and policies that attempts to free political discourse in the United States from the shackles of partisanship.
