Bag om Take Me Home Huey: Honoring American Heroes Through Art

"Take Me Home Huey is the moving chronicle of visionary artist Steve Maloney's mission to honor Vietnam veterans 50 years after the war's end, by resurrecting a shattered medevac helicopter that was shot down on Valentine's Day 1969 and dramatically transforming it into a traveling memorial. The book documents how the sculpture evolved into a touchstone for solace and connection among veterans, including some with PTSD. Drawing on a lifetime of creativity, in-depth conversations with survivors of the doomed Huey, others who served in the helicopter war, therapists, and historians, Maloney has crafted a stirring tribure to the unsung heroes of one of the nation's most controversial conflicts. The book is the culmination of a multimedia project that also includes an Emmy-winning film and an original song" -- Page [4] of cover.
