22 James Hoban: Architect of the White House
Architect James Hoban's story is that of a young, ambitious and competent young man who left his native soil to find his fortune in America. He was a hard worker, probably a tough building manager who led a disparate crew consisting of Scots, Irish, English, and African Americans, some of them enslaved, to build to completion the first building in the new federal city the Americans established as their capital. White House History, Issue 22, has been dedicated to James Hoban and his era. Articles by experts from both sides of the Atlantic explore the world he knew and the world he saw.
