Product Description : Historic Congressional Cemetery dates from the days when Washington, DC, was a burgeoning city on the edge of a malarial swamp.The stonessandstone tablets with colonial calligraphy, ornate Victorian statues, 20thcentury art nouveau carvings, and contemporary markers in shapes as strange as picnic tables and upended cubesare a time line of the city. The most distinctive stones are 171 cenotaphs; large cubes designed by Capitol architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe from the same sandstone used in the Capitol. They are found nowhere else. The men and women buried under those stones led lives of beauty, courage, struggle, cunning, leadership, and humorin short, the stories of American history.
