Steven Trout asserts that from the beginning American memory of the war was fractured and unsettled, more a matter of competing sets of collective memories-each set with its own spokespeople- than a unified body of myth. The members of the American Legion remembered the war as a time of assimilation and national harmony. However, African Americans and radicalized whites recalled a very different war. And so did many of the nation's writers, filmmakers, and painters. 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aCollective memory$zUnited States 606 $aMemory$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$xInfluence 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCollective memory 615 0$aMemory$xSocial aspects 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918$xInfluence. 676 $a940.3/1 700 $aTrout$b Steven$f1963-$0176817 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817014603321 996 $aOn the battlefield of memory$93993978 997 $aUNINA
