Rating:  Summary: A Magnificent Journey Review: I discovered this wonderful book while researching the Potomac for a graduate school project. Stanton (a former Executive Director of the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin) has captured both the river's history and its cultural essence in a concise, enjoyable work.As a long-time resident of the Mid-Atlantic area, I thought I had a fine appreciation of the Potomac's many gifts. Through Richard Stanton's words I learned just how much more there is to behold. Read this and learn of a wonderful world gone by; dream the dream of a beautiful river which is again flourishing after human neglect.
