02/23: “Flags of Our Fathers” Author James Bradley Commemorates 65 Years Since the Flag-Raising at Iwo Jima
February 23, 2010
This week marks 65 years since six men raised the American flag over Iwo Jima, an iconic image that today remains the most reproduced photograph in history. For best-selling author James Bradley, the photo is more than the most recognizable image of World War II–it is the story of his father and his family.
After discovering that his father was one of the men raising the flag, James Bradley was determined to find out more. In his #1 New York Times best-seller, Flags of Our Fathers, Bradley reveals a side of history many had never known before, and his book and the critically acclaimed film by Clint Eastwood that followed are moving tributes to the Greatest Generation.
In his inspiring presentations, James Bradley shares the story of the determination and dedication it took to raise the flag, achieving what many thought was an impossible feat.
