Download or read book Guide to the Archives of the Government of the United States in Washington Classic Reprint written by Claude Halstead Van Tyne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the Archives of the Government of the United States in Washington The guide to the archives of the government at Washington was begun in January 1903, by Mr. Van Tyne and Mr. Leland, who carried the work forward for some months. In the autumn of that year the task of completing the survey of the archives and of arranging the materials for publication naturally fell to the newly organized Bureau of Historical Research. This task was not completed until the spring of 1904, most of the work being done by Mr. Leland. The character and scope of the volume were somewhat changed and developed while the data were being collected. The purpose at the outset was to gather information as to the whereabouts of important historical materials, to discover how they were preserved and arranged, and to give descriptions of them that would be of service to the historical investigator. As the work proceeded, it was apparent that there could be no hard and fast line between historical collections and ordinary administrative records, and that every branch and division of the Government must be examined with care, even if the report on its manuscript records should ultimately be passed over with scarcely more than a word in the final report. It also became clear that a short history of each bureau or division, and a succinct statement of its duties, methods of work, and mode of keeping its records, would be of service to all students interested in the mechanism of the government or in the growth of its administrative machinery, and would at the same time be the safest guide to those seeking to know where archives of a certain character are likely to be found. As a result, the work has developed into a survey of all the branches, bureaus, and divisions of the federal government in Washington, and includes more than a mere description of their records and collections. The historical data have been gathered and the references to printed authorities and the bibliography have been prepared with care and patience, and it is to be hoped that this feature will appeal to students of history and government. The book, as we have it here, purports to be only a general survey. Only where materials are of special interest historically is there any effort to give anything approaching detailed information.

Download or read book New Guide to Washington written by George Watterston and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Guide to Washington: Containing a History and General Description of the Metropolis, Its Public Buildings, Institution, With Seventeen Beautiful Lithographed Engravings; Accompanied by a New and Correct Map The first edition of this work appeared in 1840, and, though got up in haste, and consequently imperfect, it was found to be popular. The want of such a guide to our city had long been felt, and the author having been from childhood an inhabitant of Washington, was induced to undertake it, from his intimate acquaintance with all its localities, improvements, progress, public and private institutions, and whatever concerned it. Much, however, from the haste with which it was prepared, was necessarily omitted, and to supply this deficiency a new edition is now issued. The present is almost a new work. The former edition did not contain one-third of the matter which this volume embraces. It has been greatly enlarged; everything of a temporary character has been thrown out, and that only which may be considered as permanent, retained.
