ON HIS BEST-SELLING BOOK
O SAY CAN YOU HEAR?
A CULTURAL BIOGRAPHY OF
THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

In “O Say Can You Hear?”, Mark Clague brilliantly weaves together
the stories of our National Anthem and the nation it represents.
Examining the origins of both text and music, alternate lyrics and
translations, and the song’s use in sports, at times of war, and for
political protest, he argues that the anthem’s meaning reflects―and is
reflected by―the nation’s quest to become a more perfect union.
