Eleanor Roosevelt as Coda 2. The Portrait Monument’s Radical Message 3. The Politics of Optimism at the Women’s Rights National Historic Park 4. Women’s Patriotism in War: Vietnam Women's and Women in Military Service for America Memorials 5. Rosie the Riveter/World War II Homefront National Historic Park and the Social Construction of Power Conclusion: After Absence, the Complications of PresenceReviewsThis book should be useful to public historians looking to engage with the theoretical literature surrounding memorials-an important project at a time when they are the focus of such intense activism and political debate... It seems likely that women's representation in monuments will expand significantly over the next several years. This book can aid the project of understanding how and why such shifts occur. - Ella Wagner, The Public Historian Author InformationTeresa Bergman is Professor and Chair of the Communication Department at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California, USA.
