The latest episode of the Capital District Civil War Round Table Podcast features Harold Holzer discussing his book Monument Man: The Life & Art of Daniel Chester French.
French was “one of America’s most prolific sculptors of public monuments,” who created The Minute Man in Concord, Harvard University’s John Harvard, and the statue of Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial.
Holzer talked about French’s work, the Phillip Sheridan statue in Albany, the controversy surrounding public monuments, and the Lincoln Forum. You can listen to the podcast here.
