Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual on the Origin and Development of Washington
This Manual on the Origin and Development of Washington is published for the use of students, particularly in high schools, desiring to make a study of the National Capital a part of their course in civics.
The 25 chapters composing the book are of such interest and importance that an hour a week may profitably be devoted to each, but the chapters on public buildings and monuments require each two or three periods for effective presenta' tion. In this manner the Manual may serve as a textbook for a year's work; it will also be found helpful by the general reader interested in Washington.
