Summary: The Wall ... an awesome photodocumentary
Review: Collins Publishers and Sal Lopes have done an awesome job of capturing the moving memorial in a moving photodocumentary book. This is a must for every family and every photographer. It has a special place on my bookshelf, and though I am only 20, it moves me in a way not too many other books do. As a photographer, the work is awesome and captivating... you must buy this book...

Review: Empathy and love helped create this sensitive photographic study of the Viet Nam War Memorial. One cannot view each stunning photograph without emotion and deep gratitude. This book still remains on our bookshelf so we will always remember. This is a heart-felt offering.

Summary: Original.
Review: The Wall designed by Maya Lin, then a 21 year-old student at Yale is one of the most visited monument in Washington, DC. If the war was controversial, the winning design also caused quite a stir nationwide. Arguments erupted against this "black gash of shame". The controversy was resolved by adding a bronze statue and a flagpole. The book is a pictorial testimony of the millions of people who came by to remember the fallen and to reminisce the past. These are either parents, wives, children, veterans, friends, or visitors who came to pay tribute to those who sacrificed themselves in the name of FREEDOM. They are gone, but live forever in our hearts.
