Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Sketch Book: A Society Souvenir Washington - the most beautiful and historic city of the land of freedom and progress, the land to which the oppressed of all nations look with longing as the great world's highway of liberty. Washington - the social centre of America, the home of the most charming and hospitable of people and the most gracious statesmen and diplomats. It is of this city, the epitome of American life, of her lawmakers, statesmen and diplomats, of Congressional proceedings and social events, that it has been my privilege to write for a number of years. A few weeks ago the thought came to me that a souvenir of Washington society which would contain pictures of officials and ladies, of public buildings, and monuments, with brief sketches and descriptions, together with a chapter on the etiquette of Washington society and a review of a season's social events, as they passed in procession, arranged in order for convenient reference, would give a very practical and lucid idea of Washington society and its distinguished actors, and might be well received. As the history of our public men is so generally known, the sketches are mostly devoted to the ladies of the Capital. The volume is partly a compilation from my letters which have appeared in journals of Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, St. Louis and other cities, and bears all the evidences of hasty newspaper work. No one can be more painfully aware of its imperfections than the writer, but as the thought of publishing the souvenir did not present itself until the season was considerably advanced, there has not been time to prepare it on a more elegant model. All the beautiful halftone pictures of individuals, were made expressly for this publication, and I comfort myself with the thought that if my book does not prove satisfactory as a literary production, it will charm the eye. If it is not readable, it certainly is beautiful. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
