The purpose for purchasing this book was to provide an added history lesson for our grandson about our capital city. Years ago we took his mother and his uncle to Luray Caverns in Virginia, to Mount Vernon, and to D.C. This adventure was one of the most memorable vacations of our lives, so we would like to provide the same for our grandson. We plan to visit in May, 2008. I asked for "educational leave" for our children and we were granted such and feel sure the same will be true for our grandson. He has read this book and had only a few questions because he is 12 now and has studied everything that was included. He particularly enjoyed the artwork as art has become his passion. I am happy that I was able to get this book for him and it has served its purpose well. You see, he not only had to read a book about D.C. outside his curriculum, he has to write a report after the trip for one of his teachers: Me!Read full review
