Rating:  Summary: A patriotic, thought- provoking book Review: I enjoyed reading Threads of Honor. The plot was good and when the flag got chosen to be on a space flight, I was very suprised at the outcome. ( I won't ruin it for those of you who haven't yet read the book.) Well worth the read and good for any age!
Rating:  Summary: Comment from the Publisher Review: The best way to describe this book, I believe, is in the words of Senator Orrin Hatch, who wrote the foreword. He says:"The American flag is more than just a piece of cloth-it symbolizes the courage of many, and the hope of our nation. From the frontiers of America's earliest days to today's battlefields-the American flag has always represented courage, hope and perseverance. Threads of Honor is about one particular American flag whose threads touched the lives of many and whose journey inspired our nation. In today's troubled times when America is being bombarded by those who try to threaten our democracy and the freedoms we hold dear, this book will give readers a stirring reminder of the many men and women who have sacrificed, and in some instances given everything, for what the flag represents-our freedom. "Threads of Honor is a wonderful portrait of a Boy Scout troop that wouldn't give up, their leader who instills loyalty and steadfastness, and an American flag that changed their lives forever. It is about America's space program and the frontiers it conquers. And it is a story of a journey that a small group of young men and one American flag took to help comfort a grieving nation. In short, Threads of Honor is an inspiring portrayal of the triumph of the human spirit." - Senator Orrin Hatch Threads of Honor is a great read for any patriotic American, but especially for any of the Boy Scouts in your life.
