Viac o knihe
Furgurson, an author and former correspondent and columnist for the Baltimore Sun, provides a lively account of the heroes, rogues, and everyday folk who saw Washington D.C. transformed from "a dusty muddy, muddy city of 60,000, joked about by urban sophisticates from New York and Boston" to "a capital to be reckoned with throughout the world." Though much of the narrative revolves around President Lincoln and those who stood by him, Furgurson also brings to life historic figures such as poet Walt Whitman, architect Thomas Walter, and accused Confederate spy Antonia Ford.
