The death of a chief executive, regardless of the
circumstances-sudden or expected, still in office or decades
later-is always a moment of reckoning and reflection. Mourning the
Presidents brings together renowned and emerging scholars to
examine how different generations and communities of Americans have
eulogized and remembered US presidents since George Washington's
death in 1799. Over twelve individually illuminating chapters, this
volume offers a unique approach to understanding American culture
and politics by uncovering parallels between different generations
of mourners, highlighting distinct experiences, and examining what
presidential deaths can tell us about societal fissures at various
critical points in the nation's history, right up to the present
moment.
