Book Description
"Washington Through Two Centuries" presents a comprehensive history of the city, recording its changing character and suggesting future developments.

The maps, presented as foldout pages, offer an exceptional graphic history of the capital's transformation. The volume is also illustrated with a great number of archival photographs.
