Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from the Preface: "In 1824, when General Lafayette arrived at Philadelphia, and was nobly welcomed as "The Nation's Guest," the writer of this book was staying several weeks at the hospitable home of his amiable and kind relative, Mrs. Betsy Ross. The arrival of Lafayette excited and brightened her extraordinary memory, as she very cheerfully entertained all her friends, by relating the most interesting facts of the Revolution, and its Flag of Victory."
