SECOND IN SERIES – APRIL 18, 2010
IN A SPEECH LAST WEEK, PRESIDENT OBAMA SAID: TEA PARTY SHOULD BE THANKING HIM!!!
In my first article I gave a brief history and some of the statistics relative to the Statue of Liberty. One of the great monuments to Freedom of the people in this country. A symbol among other monuments, such as the cracked iron Liberty Bell.
FIRST ARTICLE IN SERIES
The Statue of Liberty, standing tall and proud in New York Harbor, like a welcome mat for the “tired and huddled masses,” represents a symbol for freedom. It was the vision and work of two men from France: Laboulaye, and Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. One of these men, a young handsome Alsatian, was the sculptor who created the Statue of Liberty. And the story of their lives and their work in its creation is a fascinating one.
