Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Picturesque Washington: Pen and Pencil Sketches of Its Scenery, History, Traditions, Public and Social Life, With Graphic Descriptions of the Capitol, the Senate Chamber, and House of Representatives, the White House and the Government Departments, Together With Artistic Views A In the following pages the author has endeavored to narrate clearly and accurately the interesting story of the capital of the American Nation - how it has grown in the less than one hundred years of its existence from an unpromising settlement to be a bright, delightful, and prosperous city: a capital worthy of the Nation that has become in about the same length of time one of the grandest and most powerful in the world. With the story of the development and present appearance of the city, it has been the purpose to give the fullest and most authentic particulars of all the institutions of the government within its borders, how they were established, how they are now conducted, and numerous details of national affairs, which it is believed will be of interest and importance to every American. The aim has been to present in simple, attractive form the information that readers would be most likely to desire concerning the city of Washington and the great departments of the government; to make the volume one of thorough, competent reference, as well as of pleasant reading.
