Remembrance: A Tribute to America's Veterans is a 152-page hardcover book of beautifully-detailed paintings of veterans and military funerals from all of America's armed conflicts. Each of the 44 precisely detailed watercolor paintings and 19 pencil drawings are accompanied by historical text as well as inspirational quotes and poems. Remembrance provides a new perspective on every war in our nation's history, and a view of veterans' lives that has never been seen before. The artist, Robert A. Fletcher, is a Korean War veteran; the text was written by his son Rob.
Remembrance: A Musical Tribute to America's Veterans is a remarkable collection of songs and musicians.
The CD includes original renditions of classics such as "God Bless America", "Rally Round the Flag", "Soldier's Joy", "I'll Be With You in Apple Blossom Time", "Amazing Grace" and many more. All of the songs are arranged and performed by a unique group of acoustic musicians, including Remembrance author Rob Fletcher, and also features readings by Pulitzer-prize winning poet Louis Simpson, and, in an unprecedented recording, "The Welder" by Irene Carlisle (a.k.a. "Rosie the Riveter").
