Review # 2 was written on 2016-02-15 00:00:00 Dustin Yeager This is a book full of long-buried stories from the lives of many famous folk who lived in this Federal style house, Woodley. A researched work done by students lead by a dedicated teacher from the Marat school on the present grounds of Woodley. Archives bring a story of an old Indian palisaded village area thru a grant to Cecil Calvert to those who formed commerce around the river port of Georgetown. Over time the high ground that future site of Woodley with its panoramic vistas became a welcoming home , the most prominent home in this countries history. Francis Scott Keyes , Dolly Madison and seasonally many presidents for its higher ground then the White House. The list goes goes on with humor to match much of the gravity. A great read. |
