The Statue of Liberty has welcomed millions of immigrants to America since 1886. But her story really began 15 years earlier, when the French sculptor Frederic Bartholdi visited New York to plan the statue he would later present to the American people as a gift from France. "Outstanding. The exceptional drawings are visually delightful. A striking book".--"School Library Journal", starred review. Full-color illustrations.
