Description

Book Synopsis
Referred to long ago as a ""disease"" of Swiss soldiers and Highland regiments far from home, nostalgia became known in the 1920s as more of a fleeting rather than debilitating condition. This book traces the development of nostalgia from a memory disorder in the eighteenth century to its modern formulation as a pleasant recreational distraction.
