This text is a comprehensive account of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and its efforts to keep alive the memory of the nation's past. It argues that, especially prior to World War II, the DAR's conservative white middle-class members played a vital role in private citizens' efforts to both bolster patriotism and guard the nation's gendered and racial boundaries through commemorative practices.
