At the turn of the 20th century, the fate of the Washington National Monument hung in the balance, as a heated national debate raged over whether to complete the unfinished obelisk or leave it as a symbol of American failure and neglect. This book collects some of the most eloquent and impassioned speeches delivered on the floor of the House of Representatives on this issue, as well as valuable historical context and analysis.
