America the Beautiful
![]() |
America the Beautiful is a poem that was written by Katherine Lee Bates in 1893. Later it was set to the music of Samuel A. Ward and is better known as "Oh Beautiful" to American schoolchildren. Many Americans feel that this song would make a better national anthem than "Star Spangled Banner" because it is easier to sing...but I argue that it is an even less understandable poem. Did you know there are actually FOUR verses? See how well you know this poem and beloved song. Then, if you are feeling patriotic, you can take my quizzes on "The Star Spangled Banner" and the "Pledge of Allegiance". Enjoy!
