In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established June 14 as Flag Day; in August 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act of Congress.
Read: Inventing the American Flag: How the Stars and Stripes Were Woven from Symbols
-- With gorgeous four-color reproductions of an amazing array of art from diverse cultures and eras, Inventing the American Flag explores the symbolism of the US national flag and investigates why the founding fathers chose the images they did to represent the new nation. Examining the flag from an art-historical perspective, Inventing the American Flag is radically different from the patriotic tracts, antiquarian records, and Masonic mystery approaches with which this topic is usually treated. Henry W. Moeller weaves together seemingly disparate strands of history to offer a new understanding of the forces that contributed to the thirteen-star flag.

It explains through the eyes of our flag what the red, white, and blue stand for, and what the flag means to all Americans.
