"This book takes on the subject of military victory parades in New York City during
the first half of the 20th century and looks on these performances as political street
theater. The study shows how abstract concepts like the nation-state or Americanism
were represented and embodied in these events. With its focus on the three main groups
of actors involved in the parades (organizers, soldiers, spectators), the book demonstrates
how these marches can only be understood as a collaboration of these actors-- each
group interpreting the event in their very distinct ways. The book deepens our understanding
of how political performances functioned in the U.S. and how they made an impact on
society"--P. [4] of cover
