This fifth and final edition is a stunning visual chronicle of the years 1980-1999. It includes 11 detailed illustrations highlighting many important elements of these 20 years of American life and era.

Today, the statue is recognized worldwide as a symbol of freedom. Outstanding personalities who have made a significant contribution to the development of society are listed on the left and right.
