The Nation's Library: The Library of Congress,… by Alan Bisbort

A heavily illustrated, easy-to-read overview of the Library of Congress replete with pictures of maps, images, and books from American history. There are descriptions of the Library of Congress's buildings (with cutaway diagrams) and histories of the same. A good guidebook before and after your trip to the Library.
