The Statue of Liberty is a masterpiece of art and engineering. It is one of the few enduring symbols of America. But did you know that this statue was actually a gift from the people of France? The idea of presenting a monumental gift to the United States was first conceived by French statesman Edouard de Laboulaye. The two countries had been close allies since the American Revolution. But in 1865, France was under the oppressive rule of Emperor Napoleon III, and the people were suffering. Many French people saw the freedoms enjoyed by the Americans and admired the new country as it was emerging from The Civil War. They idealised the American concepts of personal freedom and liberty. iMinds will tell you the story behind the place with its innovative travel series, transporting the armchair traveller or getting you in the mood for discover on route to your destination. iMinds brings targeted knowledge to your eReading device with short information segments to whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.
