Arlington National Cemetery spreads across the rolling hills west of the Potomac, a serene and reverent sanctuary for the presidents, soldiers, and heroes—famous and unsung alike—who lie in eternal rest among its green lawns and quiet glades, a roster dating back to America's birth and including many of the foremost names in our history. Bittersweet, breath taking, sometimes heart–wrenching, always deeply respectful, this commemorative book guides readers gently over tree–lined slopes to share the ceremonies observed throughout the year. Captured in stunning color by a select group of gifted photographers, more than 200 unforgettable images create a portrait as poignant as it is proud.
