A boy in Washington in 1878

a lovely look back into a time in our history through the eyes of a young, but very observant and well spoken 16 year-old student. Through his journal,while staying with a school friend from D.C., you see the Nation's capitol in a way we'll never see it again - still very rural. At the same time, the young student shares his observation of the nation's capitol through government, art and change - what we now see as our history.
