Behind The Scenes In Washington: Being A Complete And Graphic Account Of The Credit Mobilier Investigation is a book written by Edward Winslow Martin. The book provides a detailed and comprehensive account of the Credit Mobilier investigation, which was a major political scandal in the United States during the late 19th century. The scandal involved the Union Pacific Railroad and its subsidiary, the Credit Mobilier of America, which was accused of engaging in corrupt practices and bribery to secure government contracts and subsidies. The book offers an in-depth analysis of the investigation, including the key players involved, the legal proceedings, and the political fallout. It also provides insights into the broader political and social context of the time, including the growing influence of corporate power and the corruption of the political system. Overall, Behind The Scenes In Washington is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American politics and the role of corruption in shaping political outcomes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
