About this Item
Harper & Brothers Publishers, New York. 1942. Hardcover. Stated 11th Printing. Inscribed by the author on the FFFP; To William A. Murphy-Who helped to improve my little piece of Washington, Regards W.M. Kiplinger May 22, 1945. Kiplinger was a renown business publisher. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Good+; FFFP with the signature was cut off at some time and re-glued; it appears a half-title page has been removed; index pages have been bumped by an adjacent book. No DJ. Red maroon boards and spine with faded paper title glued to the spine. 506pp 8vo. In this book, Kiplinger does something that is needed: -- he analyzes the inner organization of Washington, from the human angle, from the departmental angle, from the District administrative angle, from the Federal Government angle. He takes his readers on a grand tour of Washington, not as sightseers, but as students of the people that make up this extraordinary city, -- old Washingtonians, government officials, farm and labor groups, Negroes, Jews, lobbyists, women, journalists, etc. A clean presentable copy.
