Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The position of national bird remains vacant. No president or Congress has ever signed a proclamation or passed a law to fill it. The bald eagle has falsely basked in the position of national bird since Congress affixed the bald eagle on the Great Seal of the United States in 1782. #2 The bald eagle was chosen as the representative of America, and many of the American veterans who joined the Society of the Cincinnati rejected it. Franklin, however, was against it. He thought the eagle was a lazy, thieving bird that did not get its food honestly. #3 Franklin’s criticism of the bald eagle was just a small part of the story in establishing the turkey as a founding bird. He never said in a letter or anywhere else that he preferred the turkey over the bald eagle. #4 The American Revolution was the first time a country needed a seal to prove its legitimacy. The Americans flew their first flag, the Continental Colours, on New Year’s Day 1775, and put up a new rendition with thirteen red and white horizontal stripes and a blue canton with thirteen white stars in September 1777.
