Since October 1892, millions of school children across the nation began the school day facing the American flag with their hand over their heart as they recited the Pledge of Allegiance. Throughout World War I and World War II, patriotism shaped the culture of the United States of America.  Patriotic imagery, American flags, eagles, and images of Liberty flooded the countryside.  Little children loved, honored and respected the flag. Beltway Press has tried to capture that fervor for the flag and has produced truly outstanding photographic work for the home and public spaces.  These works will hold up for a lifetime of true Americanism.
