Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dedication of the Memorial Hall, in Dedham: September 29, 1868 Dear Sir, In behalf of the Committee of Arrangements, having in charge the dedication of the "Memorial Hall," Sept. 29th, 1868, I hereby present you their sincere thanks for your very able and eloquent Address on the occasion of said dedication; and request you to furnish the Committee with a copy for publication. Per order of the Committee. Dear Sir, Your courteous note of 8th October last, communicating the request of your Committee that a copy of the Address at the dedication of Memorial Hall, be furnished for publication, was duly received. I have delayed making any formal reply, because it has been understood by the Committee, that their request would be acceded to, so soon as the Address could be properly prepared with notes for publication. It seemed to me that the historical value of the Address would be much enhanced if the municipal acts of the town, and the associated efforts of individuals, during the war, which arc only alluded to, could be given more at length in an appendix. I have also, with the valuable aid of John D. Cobb, Esq., late Adjutant of the Thirty-Fifth Mass. Infantry, undertaken to give the record of those claiming a connection with Dedham, who entered the military and naval service during the war. The investigation and labor of this latter undertaking has caused some delay, but which has been justified by the result, as I trust. This record, though it may be found incomplete, has been made as accurate as known sources of reliable information could make it, and perhaps will be found valuable for future reference. With many thanks to your Committee for their kind indulgence, I now take great pleasure in placing the manuscript at their disposal.

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.
