Overall, The Siege of Washington D.C. offers a fascinating insight into a pivotal moment in American history and the people who lived through it.HERE let me present you, my son, with an exact portrait of the distinguished general who is commonly accepted as striking the first blow of this war. He was kindly educated at the expense of the nation, and was first among its enemies. For a time his fame ran high enough, and timid people were inclined to give him the character of a monster. But it turned out in time that he was a very peaceable gentleman, and not so much of a terrible warrior, after all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
