Site of the Day for Wednesday, July 4, 2001: Happy Independence Day to all
the Americans on the List.
The Betsy Ross Homepage
Under the circumstances, it seemed only fitting for today to offer a site
which has such a superfluity of data about the "Stars and Stripes" and the
lady who created it.
"Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag. When we view the flag, we think
of liberty, freedom, pride, and Betsy Ross. The American flag flies on the
moon, sits atop Mount Everest, is hurtling out in space. The flag is how
America signs her name. It is no surprise that Betsy Ross has become one of
the most cherished figures of American History." - from the website
