One of those books one reads that you hate to finish... I loved it! As a student of American history I can confidently say it was so well researched . I learned facts about WASHINGTON I never knew. More than this his writing style really puts the reader “ there”, in the 18th century. I highly recommend it for history lovers. I came upon this book listening g to John bachelor interview of the author and mention this because every book he recommends never dissapoints.
