About this book
A Manual on the Origin and Development of Washington is by H. Paul Caemmerer, and a resolution says that the manuscript entitled A Manual of the Plan of Washington, prepared by H. P. Caemmerer, be printed as a Senate Document. The book describes a canal at Great Falls, on the south side, 1,200 yards long, with 5 locks having a total difference of level of 76 feet 9 inches.
The book says Georgetown had become a great trading center, and that from 1815 to 1835 products to the value of $4,077,708 were exported from Georgetown to foreign markets. The text places three ornamental iron flagstaffs, 110 feet in height, immediately in front of the main entrance to the Union Station. The text says the climate was agreeable, that is, it did not have the extreme cold of the North, nor did the inhabitants suffer from the continued heat of a tropical sun.
