Reviews
This account clearly makes the case that the city would never have emerged in its present (and strikingly beautiful) form without the strong hand of planners who were politically empowered to run roughshod over the desires of various commercial developers and private interests.
New life for a classic.
In the last thirty years much has changed in Washington, inspiring new visionaries and the creation of new realities in the city. I hope that you enjoy the continuing epic of our nation’s capital as told in this new edition of Worthy of the Nation, a book that offers a wealth of insights and information.
