"Take Me Home Huey is the moving chronicle of visionary artist Steve Maloney's mission to honor Vietnam veterans 50 years after the war's end, by resurrecting a shattered medevac helicopter that was shot down on Valentine's Day 1969 and dramatically transforming it into a traveling memorial. The book documents how the sculpture evolved into a touchstone for solace and connection among veterans, including some with PTSD.
