In the late 19th and early 20th Centuries, Tin Pan Alley turned out a number of songs with themes that reflected the passage of time since the end of the Civil War in 1865. Following on the heels of the successful war with Spain in 1898, many of these songs stressed unity and patriotism, while others observed that the veterans of the Civil War were rapidly passing into history.
