Description:Excerpt from The Flag of the United States: Address Delivered by Hon. Frederick C. Hicks in the House of Representatives, June 14, 1917In submitting to my fellow countrymen this address on the flag, I desire to express to my colleagues in Congress my sin cere appreciation of the cordial reception tendered its presenta tion and my thanks for their kind expressions of approval.To my wife, whose deep interest in my work has been not only of untold material assistance, but a constant inspiration as well, these pages are affectionately dedicated.I have endeavored to present a true history of the flag, so far as it has been possible to ascertain the facts from docu ments and records that I feel are authentic, and while I realize the shortcomings of this history, I trust that those who read these pages will credit me with writing with a pen unbiased by sentiment, locality or tradition. If this history will stimulate, even in the slightest degree, the patriotism of the reader or instill in the hearts of our people greater loyalty to our coun try and deeper reverence for our flag, I shall feel that the hours occupied in research and investigation will have been profitably spent.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
