About This Item
Random House Value Publishing, 1995. Hardcover. Like New/Very Good+. 6x1x9. In this highly acclaimed and enduring biography, John R. Alden traces the interwoven histories of George Washington and the nation he helped to create, defend, and guide toward the future. Alden revisits the major events of Washingtonâs personal and professional life, including his boyhood in rural Virginia, his early careers as a surveyor and then a soldier in the French and Indian War, and his staid but lasting marriage. The core of the biography concerns Washingtonâs leadership rolesâhis assumption of the post of commander in chief of the Continental Army, his part in the Constitutional Convention, and his presidency. As Alden reveals, Washingtonâs greatness lay in his total devotion to the cause of the American nation and in his wisdom as a leader.
