Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Oration Delivered by Gen'l Francis a Walker: At the Soldiers' Monument Dedication in North Brookfield, Jan; 19, 1870 My Friends: This is peculiarly the Soldiers' Day. Perhaps we are never less fitted to sympathize with the individual soldier than when indulging the thoughts and feelings proper to the anniversary celebration of some great battle, as when, last summer, thousands were assembled at Gettysburg to commemorate the deeds of that historic field. The dedication of a monument to a distinguished commander, calls up a single majestic figure in which concentres all the glory and renown of a score of battles - from which radiates victory almost as a personal emanation. But an occasion like this which has called us together to-day, brings up the individual soldier in all the variety of his martial experience, march, bivouac, hospital, not less than foughten field, in all the sacredness, and it may be the sorrow, of his domestic relations. This shaft evokes no images of battle as a grand panorama of charging lines and gleaming squadrons, over which presides some heroic spirit, grand and terrible, the genius of desolation, but also of victory. These village commemorations of the fallen brave call up no such pictures of grandeur or terror. They minister nothing to fame, nothing to the love of gloiy, nothing to the passion of war.

This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sweeping new assessment of Civil War monuments unveiled in the United States between the 1860s and 1930s argues that they were pivotal to a national embrace of military values. Americans' wariness of standing armies limited construction of war memorials in the early republic, Thomas J. Brown explains, and continued to influence commemoration after the Civil War. As large cities and small towns across the North and South installed an astonishing range of statues, memorial halls, and other sculptural and architectural tributes to Civil War heroes, communities debated the relationship of military service to civilian life through fund-raising campaigns, artistic designs, oratory, and ceremonial practices. Brown shows that distrust of standing armies gave way to broader enthusiasm for soldiers in the Gilded Age. Some important projects challenged the trend, but many Civil War monuments proposed new norms of discipline and vigor that lifted veterans to a favored political status and modeled racial and class hierarchies. A half century of Civil War commemoration reshaped remembrance of the American Revolution and guided American responses to World War I. Brown provides the most comprehensive overview of the American war memorial as a cultural form and reframes the national debate over Civil War monuments that remain potent presences on the civic landscape.
