Buckley's fresh look at grand old dames like the Washington Monument invites even seasoned visitors to take another look, and his stories about the city's founders give favorite haunts a richer burnish. Readers will relish his tales of city designer Pierre L'Enfant, who died a pauper's death, and other mavericks who left their stamp on this most Parisian of American cities. Buckley's humor keeps the pace brisk, and he wears his patriotism on his sleeve.
