The Statue of Liberty is almost synonymous with New York but its story isn't nearly as well known. […] In this lesson I want to show you how the Statue of Liberty became a symbol of the United States. It's the story of the United States influx playing out during a time when this country was still defining what Liberty even meant. It's also the story of two Frenchmen who loved the United States. Once you understand this story you'll never see this statue the same.
