Résumé
Describes the planning and ultimate cancellation of an exhibition that nobody ever saw, but that nonetheless precipitated the most violent dispute ever witnessed by a museum. A national frenzy, fanned by lobbyists and the media, thwarted the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum's attempt to mount an exhibition featuring the Enola Gay, the B-29 Bomber that had dropped the atomic bomb on Heroshima.
