The aim of the book is to reveal the power of place and performance in oppositional politics, the traditional function of Revolutionary War battlefield memorialization in American life, and the role of Vietnam veterans both in the antiwar movement and in changing American memorialization practices. Beginning on the Friday morning of May 28, 1971, when the protest launched, and ending on the late Monday afternoon of its closing on May 31, 1971, each of the book's six chapters focuses on a veteran, his reasons for joining the military, his experience in Southeast Asia, his role in the 1971 march, and what the march meant to him. Each chapter also explores a part of the memorialized landscape stretching from Concord to Boston"-- $c Provided by publisher.
