Descriere magazin:
Most Americans have heard of Arlington National Cemetery, yet many of those interred rest in obscurity. This book seeks to honor their memories by telling the stories of 250 people buried here. Many were battlefield heroes, but some survived war to go on to major accomplishments. There are also stories of the original inhabitants of the cemetery, slaves and freedmen who worked on the Lee estate. In addition, the book covers popular sites such as the Tomb of the Unknowns and President Kennedy\'s gravesite. Navigating Arlington can be frustrating for visitors. Searching for a particular section of the cemetery is impractical without a map, and locating a specific grave within a section can lead to expenditure of significant time and energy. To aid visitors, a series of maps presents logical starting points. There is a GPS coordinate for each gravesite, which combines with the cemetery\'s smart phone application to make location simple. The description of each site is accompanied by a color photograph. James Gindlesperger is the author of several books about the Civil War: Escape from Libby Prison , Seed Corn of the Confederacy , and Fire on the Water . He and his wife also co-authored So You Think You Know Gettysburg? and So You Think You Know Antietam? , which were both honored as Foreword Reviews\' Book of the Year finalists in the travel category. They live in Johnstown, PA. . . . James Gindlesperger offers a beautiful tribute . . . Arlington: A Color Guide to America\'s Most Famous Cemetery is a must read for anyone interested in Arlington National Cemetery and the intriguing stories of some who are interred there. -David D. Haught, Military Review
