520			_a"Seaport in Virginia" by Gay Montague Moore is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. The book focuses on the rich history of Alexandria, Virginia, particularly during the time of George Washington, illustrating the town's development and connection to early American life. It explores the significant contributions of various characters, especially Washington, who played a pivotal role in the town’s emergence as a vital seaport. The opening portion of the book sets the scene with a personal narrative from the author, recounting her and her husband's interest in Alexandria and their journey to uncover its history. They delve into the town's architectural past, the key figures who shaped its early days, and the socio-economic impact of tobacco and shipping on its growth. Moore emphasizes Washington's deep ties to Alexandria, highlighting moments from his youth through his role as a respected citizen involved in town affairs, creating a vivid picture of a community intricately linked to the nation's early history.
