SAVAGE, KIRK - Monument Fever: Washington, D.C. , the National Mall, and the Transformation of the Memorial Landscape Berkeley/Los Angeles/London: University of California Press, (c.2009). 2nd printing. Hardcover. Illustrated by (dj design) Janet Wood. [lovely, as-new copy, the book itself in flawless condition; jacket has just the tiniest bit of scuffing to the rear panel]. (B&W photographs, drawings, maps) In this book, the author "tells the [National] Mall's engrossing story -- its historic plan, the structures that populate its corridors, and the sea change it reveals regarding national representation. Savage's lively and intelligent analysis traces the refocusing of the monuments themselves, from that of a single man, often on horseback, to commemorations of common soldiers or citizens; and from monuments that celebrate victory and heroism to memorials honoring vicitms. An indispensible guide to the National Mall.". Fine in Near Fine dj .
