The great Potomac River begins in the Alleghenies and flows 383
miles through some of America's most historic lands before emptying
into the Chesapeake Bay. The course of the river drove the
development of the region and the path of a young republic
Maryland's first Catholic settlers came to its banks in 1634 and
George Washington helped settle the new capitol on its shores.
During the Civil War the river divided North and South, and it
witnessed John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry and the bloody Battle
of Antietam. Author Garrett Peck leads readers on a journey down
the Potomac, from its first fount at Fairfax Stone in West Virginia
to its mouth at Point Lookout in Maryland. Combining history with
recreation, Peck has written an indispensible guide to the nation's
river.
