Despite reunification, the continuing imperative of commemoration reflects a more complex resolution to the war than is even now apparent. His book provides a compelling account of this conflict that marks a major contribution to our understanding of the war and its many meanings."; Modern War Studies Series; 6.32 X 1.11 X 9.48 inches; 342 pages .
