From the book’s introduction: “ With deep pride in our past and great expectations for our future, REALTORS across the country dedicate this book to Americans everywhere. It tells the story of Uncle Sam. Few people know that Uncle Sam was a living person. Few school libraries have even a single book that indicates Uncle Sam was a real man. There’s never been a movie, never a record, never a radio program on his life. REALTORS nationwide have chosen the time of America’s 200th anniversary to rectify this historical oversight and to make available the publication, “Uncle Sam: The Man And The Legend.” Book’s been stored in a smoke free home with three short haired pets.
