Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book documents the activities of a commission tasked with selecting a site and design for a memorial in France to honor Massachusetts soldiers who fell in World War I. Following the legislature's directive, the commission, led by Chairman Walter A. Robinson, traveled to France and investigated potential locations and monuments before settling on a site near St. Mihiel. They then engaged sculptor Daniel Chester French and architect Henry Bacon to design the memorial, which would feature a bronze angel and granite pedestal inscribed with the names of the Massachusetts dead. The book provides a detailed account of the process, negotiations, and decisions involved in creating this lasting tribute, offering insights into the challenges and considerations faced when commemorating the sacrifices of war.
