The story intertwines art, politics, historical memory, patriotism, racism, and a fascinating set of characters, from those who fought in the conflict and those who resisted it to politicians at the highest level. At its center are two enduring figures: Maya Lin, a young, Asian-American architecture student at Yale whose abstract design won the international competition but triggered a fierce backlash among powerful figures; and Frederick Hart, an innovative sculptor of humble origins on the cusp of stardom. James Reston, Jr., a veteran who lost a close friend in the war and has written incisively about the conflict's bitter aftermath, explores how the debate reignited passions around Vietnam long after the war's end and raised questions about how best to honor those who fought and sacrificed in an ill-advised war. 000859381 60010 $$aLin, Maya,$$d1959- 000859381 60010 $$aHart, Frederick,$$d1943-1999. 000859381 650_0 $$aVietnam Veterans Memorial (Washington, D.C.)$$xHistory. 000859381 650_0 $$aVietnam War, 1961-1975$$xMonuments$$zWashington (D.C.) 000859381 651_0 $$aWashington (D.C.)$$xBuildings, structures, etc. 000859381 85200 $$bgen$$hF203.4.V54$$iR47$$i2017 000859381 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:859381$$pGLOBAL_SET 000859381 980__ $$aBIB 000859381 980__ $$aBOOK
