Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. A treasure hunt for the hidden meaning of the symbols that appear on America's beloved national flag."The best book on the American flag's origins. . . No one knows the ins and outs of the origins of the flag of the United States as well as Henry Moeller does. . . Highly recommended."--Marc Leepson, author of Flag: An American BiographyWith gorgeous four-color reproductions of an amazing array of art from diverse cultures and eras, Inventing the American Flag explores the symbolism of the flag and investigates why the founding fathers chose the images they did to represent the new nation. Art history sleuth Henry W. Moeller brings a breath of fresh air to our appreciation of the flag, blowing away the cobwebs left by antiquarians fixated on dusty records and Masonic conspiracies. Inventing the American Flag weaves together exotic and colorful strands of history to offer a new understanding of the forces that contributed to the flag flown by America's revolutionaries.Henry W. Moeller's forty-year journey into the history of the symbols on America's early flags took him to libraries, museums, and private collections around the world. The deeper he dug, the further back in time he went. He pored over explorers' maps, medieval manuscripts, astronomers' charts, and ancient myths. Gradually, he was able to piece together the remarkable, constantly surprising, and often inspiring story of how, beginning in classical times, the stars and stripes acquired new meanings and were put to new uses until, at the birth of our nation, they became the symbols of that nation itself. With gorgeous four-color reproductions of an amazing array of art from diverse cultures and eras, this work explores the symbolism of the national flag and investigates why the founding fathers chose the images to represent the new nation.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - - Vexillologists are not the only people who appreciate the flag--American flags are favored collectors' items for both history buffs and folk art aficionados. This book will appeal to all those markets.- The abundance of art makes this an excellent gift book--it is a museum-quality book.- The theory presented--that the symbols chosen for the flag were based on, among other things, ancient mythology, Christianity, and astronomy--is revolutionary. No one has ever woven all these elements together into one argument, which is so compelling that it seems perfectly obvious once it is unveiled.…
