Book Synopsis
Brings together some of the most important and innovative scholars of the Civil War era to reflect on what death and memorialization meant to the Civil War generation - and how those meanings still influence Americans today.

Trade Review
Final Resting Places contains elements that certainly will surprise readers who thought they knew everything about the American Civil War. The essays deal with more than death and dying: they reveal cogent details of how people lived, strived for various goals while here on Earth, and have been remembered." - William A. Blair, author of Cities of the Dead: Contesting the Memory of the Civil War in the South, 1865-1914
