Exploring ten extraordinary places, this provocative analysis of historic preservation's past and future will transform contemporary understanding of the movement. This book examines assumptions about why history, heritage, and place should matter. It ranges from a discussion of the commemoration of place in the Marquis de Lafayette's triumphal tour of the United States in 1824-25 to speculation about the cultural and political import of interpreting history on superfund toxic waste sites. 12 color and 165 black-and-white photos
