The '''Statue of Liberty''' was a gift from [[France]] to the [[United States]].  Arriving at the entrance of New York harbor on June 17th, 1884, the Statue of Liberty has proudly stayed there ever since.  The statue stands nearly 150 feet tall and is a woman with her arm held high with a lit torch.  In her other hand she is clutching a book.  The famous inscription on the inside reads:

In 1903 an inscription was added on the inside which reads, in part:

<blockquote>Give me your tired, your poor,

<blockquote>Give me your tired, your poor,

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!</blockquote>

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!</blockquote>
