#TBRtemptation post 5! This qualifies as a coffee table book, considering it dozens of beautiful illustrations. When President George Washington began his national tours, the inns & taverns of the day looked wholly inadequate. Soon thereafter, the hotel came into being--large structures with private bedchambers & grand ballrooms. Why was the hotel invented? How did its architecture develop? How did it influence history? #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
