　　Wars do not fully end when the shooting stops. As G. Kurt

Piehler reveals in this book, after every conflict from the

Revolution to the Persian Gulf War, Americans have argued about how

and fo***hat deeds and heroes wars should be remembered.

Drawing on sources ranging from government documents to

Embalmer's Monthly, Piehler recounts efforts to commemorate wars by

erecting monuments, designating holidays, forming ve***ns'

***anizati***, and establishing national cemetaries. The federal

government, he contends, initially sidestepped funding for

memorials, thereby leaving the determination of how and whom to

honor in the hands of those with ready money—and those who

responded to them. In one instance, monuments to “Yankee heroes”

erected by the Daughters of the American Revolution were countered

by immigrant groups, who added such figures as Casimir Pulaski and

Thaddeus Kosciusko to the record of the war. Piehler argues that

the conflict between these groups is emblematic of the ongoing

reinterpretation of wars by majority and minority groups, and by

successive generati***.

Dem***trating that the battles over the Vietnam Ve***ns Memorial

are not unique in American history, Remembering War the American

Way reveals that the memory of war is intrinsically bound to the

pluralistic definition of national identity.
