Inhaltsangabe

After almost 100 years, back in print, the true story of the romantic life of the maker of the first American flag, originally published in 1930. Rediscover the Spirit of '76 in what the Fort Worth Star-Telegram called a "fascinating story."

From the original publication:
Here for the first time, is the true story of the maker of the first American flag.

It is somewhat remarkable that heretofore so little had been known about Betsy Ross, that the making of the first American flag was but one episode in her extraordinary career. The facts now reveal that the life of Betsy Ross was as colorful as the flag she helped create. From the time this beautiful Quaker girl was disowned by her faith because of her forbidden marriage, her life was filled with tragedy and romance. The violent death of her first husband, the disappearance of her second husband on the high seas, and her final marriage to a young patriot, constitute a chilling chapter in American history. Facts from old records, including the diary of one of her lovers, written in prison, set forth her romantic career.
The real final answer to the controversial question, “Who made the flag?” Supported by official affidavits, documents, and data until now unpublished. – The John C. Winston Company, Philadelphia
