Description: Final Resting Places : Reflections on the Meaning of Civil War Graves, Hardcover by Jordan, Brian Matthew (EDT); White, Jonathan W. (EDT); Blight, David W. (FRW), ISBN 082036455X, ISBN-13 9780820364551, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Final Resting Places brings together some of the most important and innovative scholars of the Civil War era to reflect on what death and memorialization meant to the Civil War generation—and how those meanings still influence Americans today. In each essay, a noted historian explores a different type of gravesite—including large marble temples, unmarked graves beneath the waves, makeshift markers on battlefields, mass graves on hillsides, neat rows of military headstones, university graveyards, tombs without bodies, and small family plots. Each burial place tells a unique story of how someone lived and died; how they were mourned and remembered. Together, they help us reckon with the most tragic period of American history.
