The Real George Washington
Enjoy a personal glimpse into the life of one of the greatest men who ever lived, the Father of our Country. No debasing stories that question his integrity here! Meet the man who lost his father at age 11 and nearly joined the British Navy at 15. He was ambushed in the French and Indian War, escaping injury with a coat and hat full of bullet holes. Humbly, Washington resisted plans to crown him king, and sacrificed his dream to live a quiet life in the country to become this nation's first president. His most important words are arranged alphabetically by topic in a 200 page section. This book gives Washington the honor he deserves and makes me love him even more. Illustrated, paperback, 950 pages, teen/adult reading level. |
