From the front DJ flap, "To present the history of these three famous inns with the accuracy which characterized all his work, Dr. Andrews pored industriously over the records and archives of the city, the state and the national capital. From these he wove a fascinating story of the guests who made the Fountain Inn an institution known throughout the thirteen original states - guests who shaped our country's history; George Washington, Adams, Jackson, and Lafayette and many other friends from foreign lands."
