Description

After World War I ended, American families faced an agonising choice about where to bury their war dead. Political leaders, including former President Theodore Roosevelt, urged families to leave the deceased in European cemeteries to strengthen US-European political ties. This decision transformed into a deeply personal yet political matter for grieving families. Burying America's World War Dead explores how families advocated for their own wishes, how disputes within families were resolved, and what factors influenced their final decisions about burial locations. Published by Routledge as part of their Studies in First World War History series, this book examines the intersection of family grief, national politics, and post-war commemoration during one of history's most significant periods.

Key Features

Explores how families navigated political pressure from leaders like Theodore Roosevelt to leave deceased soldiers in European cemeteries.

Examines the resolution of family disputes and personal choice-making during the challenging period after the First World War.
