Where Valor Rests

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. It is a roster dating back to America's birth and including many of the foremost names in our history. <p/>Bittersweet breathtaking sometimes heart-wrenching always deeply respectful this commemorative book guides readers gently over tree-lined slopes to share the ceremonies observed throughout the year from the traditional wreath-laying on Memorial Day which enshrines centuries of sacrifice to the moving graveside services that honor individual men and women who served our country. Captured in stunning color by a select group of gifted photographers these unforgettable images create a portrait as poignant as it is proud.
