This book is the first to tell the entire story of this particular type of U.S. World War II memory begun by U.S. President Ronald Reagan in 1984, and promoted the same year by newscaster Tom Brokaw. The story continues in 1994, when it was given academic credence by historian Stephen E. Ambrose, a sensory realism and ideal American character by director Steven Spielberg and actor Tom Hanks, sloganized by Tom Brokaw in 1998, and later interpreted in light of 9/11 and new wars"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Reagan, Ronald $x Influence. 600 10 $a Brokaw, Tom. $t Greatest generation $x Influence. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Influence. 650 0 $a Collective memory $z United States. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Mass media and the war. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bullinger, Jonathan M., 1978-. $t Reagan's "boys" and the children of the greatest generation $d New York, NY : Routledge/Taylor & Francis Group, 2020 $z 9780429355905 $w (DLC) 2019028258 830 0 $a Routledge advances in American history. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220303011133.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AE996542533D11EC9185B7CB4CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
