Inspiring Library of Congress Photograph

This photograph is of the house of Andrew John Volstead, my Great Grandfather.  He authored the National Prohibition Act of 1919, which was enacted to carry out the eighteenth amendment which established Prohibition in the United States.  I was hoping for a picture of Andrew himself, but they weren't available here.  This image amazes me, that a part of my family history still stands, and had such a profound effect on so many lives.  I would have thought that those against Prohibition would have gone so far as to burn down the house of the author, and even if they had it would still stand and will be preserved for generations to come, in a photograph.
