From George Washington's dour gaze to the charging buffalo of the western frontier, to Lindbergh's soaring biplane, American stamps are a vivid window into our country's extraordinary and distinctive past. With the always accessible and spirited West as your guide, discover the remarkable breadth of America's short history through a fresh lens. On their own, stamps can be curiosities, even artistic marvels; in this book, stamps become a window into the larger sweep of history. - With deckle edge and full-color reproductions throughout - For fans of A History of the World in 100 Objects and Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey - A perfect gift for patriots, philatelists, and armchair historians"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 West Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 We Checked In Add Copy to MyList
