A Flag For Our Country
A Flag For Our Country explains the story of how the first flag of the United States of America was made and the influence that General George Washington and Betsy Ross had on it. Betsy Ross owned a small shop in Philadelphia for making clothes, which she ran by herself after her husband had died in the war. One day General George Washington came to her store and asked her for a favor; he wanted Betsy Ross to make a new flag to represent the United States of America and it’s freedom. General Washington showed her the design and they worked together to design the new flag. The story continues with the Betsy Ross cutting out the stars and sewing the flag. Alex Haley, as General Editor, wrote the introduction.
