ABOUT THE BOOK

Miller Publishing, Inc. presents the publication of Liberty For All, the first and only pictorial volume authentically documenting the historic restoration of the Statue of Liberty. Authorized by the organization that spearheaded the project, The Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation, Inc., Liberty For All makes a most memorable, customized corporate gift for valued customers, directors or employees.

"Commemorating our land with landmark books" is the mission of Miller Publishing. This theme holds true as this newest release employs dramatic images to pay homage to the most recognized symbol in the world. As such, Liberty For All promises to be the corporate gift that will become a treasured keepsake to those who receive it - and a continued reminder of the generosity of the corporation that gave it.

"Liberty For All is truly the gift that says 'America'," said Fred Miller, President of Miller Publishing, Inc. "And we are happy to offer during this pre-publication period the opportunity to personalize the book with a company's corporate picture and message on the dust jacket, making it a most meaningful way for a corporation to commemorate an important event, occasion or holiday."

Through the eyes of photographer Peter B. Kaplan and the words of the legendary Lee Iacocca, this 240 page coffee-table style publication depicts the history of the world-famous monument from its humble birth in France where it was conceived as a gift to America, to its role as a welcoming beacon for immigrants, and finally to the present day, as a symbol of freedom for people everywhere.

Kaplan's expertise in "height" photography won him preferred access to document the restoration from an insider's point of view. Beginning in 1982 through to her glorious centennial celebration in July 1986, Liberty for All features over 300 captivating and breath-taking photographs that capture the monumental nature of the project, the technical challenges confronted and the human drama of being up close and personal with America's most beloved symbol.

Lee Iacocca, son of immigrants and the epitome of the American Dream, headed the public-private partnership that oversaw the Statue's restoration to a successful completion with the unwavering support of the American people. His plain spoken text in Liberty for All brings to life the enormity of the task, the emotional nature of the journey and the thrill that all Americans felt upon the Statue's triumphant unveiling during the Liberty Weekend festivities.

"For over a century Lady Liberty has inspired Americans with her beauty, dignity and history," said Lee Iacocca. "Now more than ever in the turbulent times in which we live, the Lady continues to inspire us, her torch held high, as the ultimate symbol of freedom, hope and possibility."

When words just aren't enough, Miller's high-quality publications present a subject in all its full-color drama. Liberty For All makes the perfect addition to a corporate marketing or customer relations campaign. Scheduled for release in Fall 2002, personalized corporate orders are currently being taken, with quantity discounts available. For further information contact Fred Miller at 302-576-6579.
