Description

Explore the personal and political struggles of families following the end of the Great War. In Burying America's World War Dead, part of the Routledge Studies in First World War History series, readers examine the difficult decisions faced by those mourning American soldiers. After the war, political figures like Theodore Roosevelt urged families to leave their loved ones in European cemeteries to strengthen international ties. This created a tension between national interests and personal grief. This book investigates how grieving families navigated these pressures, how they advocated for their own beliefs, and how they resolved internal family disputes regarding the final resting place of their dead. This historical study provides a deep look at the intersection of private mourning and public policy. It is an essential read for students and historians interested in military history and the social impact of the First World War.
