Historic Falls Church

Meer over het boek

The history of Falls Church is rich with transformation, from its fertile land and early settlement around a prominent 18th-century church to its proximity to Washington, DC. Witnessing significant events like the War of 1812 and the Civil War, the town evolved from a major farming center to a suburban community post-World War II. The narrative highlights the development of its religious, educational, and civic institutions, reflecting the impact of historical movements, including civil rights, that shaped its unique identity amidst urban expansion.
