Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years during and after the Civil War, the question of how to memorialize the Union dead weighed heavily on the minds of Northern military and civic leaders. These efforts can be divided into three major groups: the attempt to rebury the remains of Union soldiers with honor in national cemeteries, the commemoration of specific deeds and regiments on the war's battlefields, and the more general monuments to the war's soldiers that began to appear in town squares all across the North, far from the front lines but still close to the enormity of death that affected every community. A particular subset of these local monuments, called soldiers' and sailors' monuments, commemorated the four branches of the armed forces. Using more than 130 individual records from the Smithsonian Inventory of American Sculpture, this paper analyzes this group of monuments, identifying stylistic trends and scouring the objects for insight into the larger issues of Reconstruction, reunion, and the place of abolition in the national memory of the war. These monuments held an important place in the discourse surrounding the end of the war, the construction of how the nation would remember it, and the healing process necessary to overcome a cataclysmic event in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This expansive, multivolume reference work provides a broad, multidisciplinary examination of the Civil War period ranging from pre-Civil War developments and catalysts such as the Mexican-American War to the rebuilding of the war-torn nation during Reconstruction. The Civil War was undoubtedly the most important and seminal event in 19th-century American history. Students who understand the Civil War have a better grasp of the central dilemmas in the American historical narrative: states rights versus federalism, freedom versus slavery, the role of the military establishment, the extent of presidential powers, and individual rights versus collective rights. Many of these dilemmas continue to shape modern society and politics. This comprehensive work facilitates both detailed reading and quick referencing for readers from the high school level to senior scholars in the field. The exhaustive coverage of this encyclopedia includes all significant battles and skirmishes; important figures, both civilian and military; weapons; government relations with Native Americans; and a plethora of social, political, cultural, military, and economic developments. The entries also address the many events that led to the conflict, the international diplomacy of the war, the rise of the Republican Party and the growing crisis and stalemate in American politics, slavery and its impact on the nation as a whole, the secession crisis, the emergence of the "total war" concept, and the complex challenges of the aftermath of the conflict.
