"As editor of the award-winning Library of America collection of George Washington's writings and a curator of the great man's original papers, John Rhodehamel has established himself as an authority of our nation's preeminent founding father. Rhodehamel examines George Washington as a public figure, arguing that the man--who first achieved fame in his early twenties--is inextricably bound to his mythic status. Solidly grounded in Washington's papers and exemplary in its brevity, this approachable biography is a superb introduction to the leader whose name has become synonymous with America"--Google Books.

This was a very interesting book, the autobiography of our first elected president made sure to separate fact from the many myths that have grown up around George Washington. I had known for awhile that this book was being written, having heard the author mention it on a documentary on George Washington. I was thrilled to get a chance to read an eARC of it from NetGalley. I really enjoyed reading an up to date biography of the former general turned President of our country. I will definitely be buying a copy for my history/biography book collection. ( )
