Spanning more than 400 years of America's past, this book brings
together, for the first time, entries on the ways Americans have
mythologized both the many wars the nation has fought and the men
and women connected with those conflicts. Focusing on significant
representations in popular culture, it provides information on
fiction, drama, poems, songs, film and television, art, memorials,
photographs, documentaries, and cartoons. From the colonial wars
before 1775 to our 1997 peacekeeper role in Bosnia, the work
briefly explores the historical background of each war period,
enabling the reader to place the almost 500 entries into their
proper context. The book includes particularly large sections
dealing with the popular culture of the American Revolution, the
Civil War, the Indian Wars West of the Mississippi, World War II,
and Vietnam. It has been designed to be a useful reference tool for
anyone interested in America's many wars, to provide answers, to
teach, to inspire, and most of all, to be enjoyed.
