FREDERICK DOUGLASSA Lecture on Our National Capital
By
Frederick Douglass
This fascinating volume pays in large measure an eloquent tribute to one of the most remarkable men of the nineteenth century, a man whose powerful voice still rings with the lessons for our own time. In this actual address, perhaps the longest Douglass has ever given, it is organized in three parts: first an examination of Washington's assets as the seat of government; followed by a delineation of its drawbacks for such a role; and finally a concluding evaluation, touched off with an optimistic view as to it's future. A very pertinent lecture for the times of today.
***Includes a "Study and Discussion Aids for the Secondary Student" workbook.
