The Statesmen Snowbound by Robert Fitzgerald is about a group of politicians who go on a vacation out in the snow. Excerpt: «Toward the close of the —th Congress I was designated a member of a committee on the part of the House to accompany the remains of the late Senator Thurlow to their last resting place at the old home in Kentucky. And it might be well to state here that I am quite aware that some of my ungrateful countrymen apply the spiteful term „junket“ to a journey of this description. When one considers the sacrifices we Congressmen make to serve the nation, it is hard to believe that unthinking persons begrudge us a little pleasure.»
