Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Washington and Franklin Country
N introducing the American Visitor to the Washington and Franklin country, it is felt that no apology is needed, because the number of Visitors from over the water to the homes of these two famous Americans increases year by year. It is, however, thought desirable to present in a brief manner the main points of interest to those who are desirous of Visiting the chief places connected with Washington and Franklin.
Northamptonshire is a delightful county, well wooded, full of historic associations, and proudly claims to have been the birthplace of the ancestors of two world-famous Americans, George Washington, the first President of the United States, and Benjamin Franklin, a statesman and leader of thought of almost equal fame.
