The Battle of Turkey Thicket
"The Battle of Turkey Thicket" is the true story of Philip Thomas Hughes, an orphan who rebelled against the oppressive wishes of his adoptive parents. His battle raged across state lines, from Washington, D.C.'s Brookland community to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. It spilled across the border into Canada, then coursed through Chicago's Skid Row. Philip's journey took a romantic interlude in post-war Japan before reaching its climax during the darkest days of a war in Korea, in the shadow of a place that the U.S. Army called "Hill 300." "The Battle of Turkey Thicket" recalls Philip's journeys and the enduring outcome of his final sacrifice.

One of the most beloved routes was the scenic Cabin John line to the amusement park in Glen Echo, Maryland.

Join author John DeFerrari on a joyride through the fascinating history of streetcars in the nation's capital.
