George Washington: A Life From Beginning to End by Hourly History
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
George Washington: The man who united thirteen states and built a nation
A brief but excellent account of the man, the military leader, and the father of the nation. Born as a younger Washington, he learned to survey and know the land he moved in, trained in the British military and rose to overcome them as leader of the Continental Army, and was chosen, unanimously, to unite and lead a new nation. He proved to be a man of impeccable honor and integrity, fully worthy of the title popularly bestowed.
The book is a pleasure to read. Replete with anecdotes and little-known details, it enlivens a true historical account.
Highly recommended.
