First published in 1969, Sasek paints the nation’s capital in unforgettable shades of red, white, and blue. With bright illustrations and snappy, witty commentary, Sasek leads readers through Washington, DC’s most iconic sights, including the Washington Monument, the White House, and the city’s legendary cherry blossoms. The result is a lively, charming portrait of the capital city and its national institutions.
