Book Review of The Georgetown Ladies' Social Club : Power, Passion, and Politics in the Nation's Capital

The Georgetown Ladies' Social Club : Power, Passion, and Politics in the Nation's Capital
reviewed on


If you like to read about the lives of the rich and famous in 1950s-1980s Washington DC, you will really enjoy this book. It doesn't read like history but you will get the sense of these people -- warts and all. Katherine Graham, publisher of the Washington Post, gets most of the coverage but many others are discussed as well. It's a wonderful way to get your history!
