Secrets Bonus Episode: Washington the Botanist

141 views
On this special Members' Only episode of the Secrets of Washington's Archives, we're featuring one of the most beautiful books in the Washington Presidential Library's collections, a set of William Curtis' Botanical Magazine. Often considered the world's first color periodical, the Botanical Magazine is more than just a few pretty pages. It is also a rare peek into Washington's scientific interests. While we often think of Washington as a general or a president, we may more rarely consider him a scientist. But if the new government of the United States was Washington's great experiment for promoting human happiness, then his botanic garden was a space for him to test out his green thumb.
