Such was the national mood in early 1976 that plans for a mammoth celebration of the bicentennial in Philadelphia had been quietly . But when the Fourth of July 1976 came round things did not seem so gloomy . So up and down the country they celebrated. There were parades, there were speeches, there were picnics, there were fireworks. The flag waved everywhere, and everywhere people their brains for permanently useful schemes, such as the restoration of old buildings or the opening of new parks, with which to mark the bicentennial. And by a of real genius, the last great sailing-ships of the world were called to New York harbour, a summer parade of dizzy and clouds of white canvas, to express by their beauty some of the faith in themselves, their past and their future which the American people were renewing. The whole affair was exactly the tonic for the national that was needed.
