An Insight Into Ethnic Washington D.C.,
This review is from: URBAN ODYSSEY (Hardcover)
One does not think of Washington D.C. as an ethnic city. Francine Curro Cary, Executive Director of the Humanities Council of Washington D.C. proves otherwise. The book is a series of essays of Washington ethnicity starting with the original Native Americans & working its way to the present. It is an interesting book, but hard to read at one sitting as it is more for a history scholar. My interest in Washington D.C. & its history kept me going. It will not help the tourist much as a guide to the major landmarks & monuments. It is more about the "other Washington." The one people actually live in. I would recommend only by someone deeply interested in the total history of Washington D.C., or a specialist in American Urban Ethnic Studies. It is not really for the general public.
