"The Star-Spangled Banner" (Rare 1898 recording) National Anthem Of The USA

During the War of 1812, during the British bombardment on Fort McHenry, Francis Scott Key and Agent John Stuart Skinner stepped aboard the HMS Tonnet to negotiate releasing some prisoners. After the talks, the British onboard refused to let them leave because they'd became familiar with the position and strength of the British fleet. Key was left with little to do but watch the bombardment of Fort McHenry during the Battle of Baltimore from Sep. 13–14, 1814. By dawn, Key saw an American flag waving and wrote about this experience in a poem titled "Defense of Fort M'Henry" (which later became known as "The Star-Spangled Banner") and published his work shortly after. Since then, the poem, turned a song, became widespread and very patriotic throughout the United States and in 1916, under Woodrow Wilson's presidency, it became the official national anthem of the United States via an executive order. This recording in particular was was recorded in 1898 (vocalists unknown) and only sings the first paragraph of the song, repeating the last two lines.
