Episode Synopsis

Following a visit to a museum and the celebration of July 4th, I figured we should get a little patriotic and read some poems. We will read the poem "The American Flag" written by Joseph Rodman Drake and "Sheridan's Ride" from Thomas Buchanan Read. Both of these stories come from the book "Poems of American Patriotism" compiled by Brander Matthews.   Website: http://www.thefightingmoose.com/   Blog https://thefightingmoosepodcast.blogspot.com/   iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fighting-moose/id1324413606?mt=2/   Story (PDF): http://ww.thefightingmoose.com/episode407.pdf   Reading List: http://www.thefightingmoose.com/readinglist.pdf   YouTube: https://youtu.be/TtXVuYKUkZM/   Book(s): "Poems of American Patriotism" http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6316   Music/Audio: Artist – Analog by Nature http://dig.ccmixter.org/people/cdk   National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA): http://www.nasa.gov   Song(s) Used: cdk - Sunday by Analog By Nature (c) copyright 2016 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/cdk/53755
