"As a long time resident of Quincy MA, birthplace of Founding Father John Adams, 1st US Vice President and 2nd President and 6th US President his son John Quincy Adams , how amazing that Miss Bates of Massachusetts ( MA) wrote this incredible poem that almost became America's National Anthem. As an American & MA resident, both for over 25 years, what an honor and privilege being part of history of the world's oldest democracy , as we celebrate America's & MA's 250th Anniversaries and Quincy's 400th Anniversary (2025) since its founding" .... Secretary General Kumu Gupta.
Katharine Lee Bates is a distinct cousin of mine. In 1893 Katharine took a trip to Pikes Peak CO. and was so inspired by the view, that she wrote the first version.

I had the fun and excitement of travelling across America, on summer break in college, visiting many states of this magnificent country with my family.
