Chaotic and corrupt, the young city is populated by bellicose congressmen, Confederate conspirators,enterprising prostitutes. Soldiers of a volunteer army swing from the dome of the Capitol, assassins stalk the avenues, and Abraham Lincoln struggles to justify his presidency as the Union heads to war"......Reveille in Washington by Margaret Leech, Published by Harper & Brothers Publishers, New York and London (1941), Book of the month club.- original insert included with book/. 483 pages.....Large heavy book, dark blue boards with orange/ trim & gilt titling on spine are in good condition, some minor staining, discoloration.
