Description

On February 23, 1945, an American flag was raised atop Mount Suribachi on the Japanese island of Iwo Jima. The moment--captured in one of the most famous photographs of all time--didn't just boost the morale of the U.S. soldiers fighting on the island. It also lifted the spirits of the American people back home who had grown weary of World War II. How did this remarkable moment come to pass and what is its enduring legacy? Find out in an easy-to-read graphic novel that reveals why the flag raising on Iwo Jima is among the greatest moments in history.
