Introduction: The politics of loss
Go public : the construction of loss
For us the war still goes on : the limits of homecoming
As it has in the past : a short history of oblivion
Fullest possible accounting : the persistence of the past
The wilderness years : life after death
Highest national priority : resurrection and retribution
Not to close the door, but to open it : the ambiguity of recovery
Conclusion: This thing has consumed American politics for years.
