Synopsis
"Aspects of Georgetown," is an elegantly produced collection of essays by Georgetown writer Edith Schafer. The essays are based on columns Schafer wrote for the Citizens Association newsletter. An astute observer of the Georgetown scene, Schafer writes amusingly and provocatively on everything from "Desire Under the Elms" to "Babylon on the Potomac" to "Provenance and the Life of Things," with insights into history, landmarks, houses, gardens, street life, sometimes eccentric residents, and everything that makes Georgetown unique-- all in just 100 pages of delicious reading. This is a keepsake volume which captures the essence of this unique place. The reader will discover why Georgetown has been called "the most civilized neighborhood in the world."
