The gleaming, modern city of Washington, DC was once an eyesore of unfilled swamps, filthy canals, and horse manure crowned by a half-finished obelisk dedicated to George Washington. "Hooker", the moniker for prostitute, originated yards from the White House in Federal Triangle, where these women gave comfort to General Hooker's troops. Learn the dirty little secrets of how Washington, DC evolved from a swamp to a sleepy Southern town to the present day mecca for young movers and shakers thanks to the vision of men like George Washington, Pierre L'Enfant, Boss Shepherd, James McMillan and "Mayor for Life" Marion Barry.
