A surprisingly good book! If you are interested in what life was like in Washington during the time of the civil war, and if you can take what is said in the book as being accurate, then quite an interesting read. The day to day life of Washington, what is was like to live there at the time, and the other interesting personalities that populated it makes for entertainment of a different style. Enjoyed this book.
