The Final Race: Washington Irvingâs Heroic Journey to Complete "The Life of George Washington"
The Final Race: Washington Irvingâs Heroic Journey to Complete "The Life of George Washington"
One of the most famous authors of the nineteenth century, the great Washington Irving, was born on April 3, 1783 in New York City. The son of Scottish-English immigrants, Irvingâs parents, like many of their fellow Americans, admired the greatest hero of the age, George Washington, and named their youngest child after him.At the tender age of six, Irving got to meet his namesake in New York City, the first capital of the United States and home to President George Washington and the American gove

Standing Tall: The Trials of General George Washington During the Siege of Boston
After nearly a year filled with some of the most stressful, mentally-exhausting days of his life, a victorious General George Washington finally entered a liberated Boston, Massachusetts on March 18, 1776. One day earlier, nearly 11,000 British troops and around 1,100 Loyalist civilians had crammed into over 120 ships, evacuating Boston and bringing an end to a 332-day siege of the embattled harbor town. It was a major moment of triumph for Bostonians and supporters of the American cause, markin

The Most Dangerous Hour: How General George Washington Prevented a Military Coup
With nothing but a pair of glasses and his matchless prestige, General George Washington prevented a military coup and saved the American Revolution from ruin at a tense meeting with the officers of the Continental Army in the Temple of Virtue, the officersâ assembly hall at the armyâs encampment in the Newburgh-New Windsor area of New York on March 15, 1783.The dawning of the year 1783 found the officers of the Continental Army on the verge of revolt against the Confederation Congress.

George Washington: The Model of American Leadership
Character, duty, honor, country, trust, and responsibility.Those are six of the most important words that define the life and legacy of George Washington.Americaâs revolutionary generation knew that the storybook of mankind was replete with examples of ambitious men who took advantage of unique moments in history to seize power for themselves and to never give it up. With the massive popularity and power that he wielded as the commander and chief of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary
Abraham Lincoln: A Life of Suffering and God's Purpose
Abraham Lincoln: A Life of Suffering and God's Purpose
After learning of the crushing Union defeat at the Battle of Fredericksburg in December 1862, President Abraham Lincoln said that âif there is a worse place than hell I am in it.â When Pennsylvania Governor Andrew G. Curtin described the terrible scenes of slaughter from that battle, Lincoln, his face âdarkened with pain,â âmoaned and groaned in anguish,â âshowed great agony of spirit,â and âwalked the floor, wringing his hands and uttering exclamations of grief.â In that grief, Lincoln repeated
Author Spotlight: Jonathan Horn
Author Spotlight: Jonathan Horn
Author Jonathan Horn has written some terrific works of history. In honor of Hornâs birthday this week, here are a few thoughts on the great volumes he has produced so far.After almost two decades of uninterrupted service to his country during the Revolutionary War, at the Constitutional Convention, and as Americaâs first president, George Washington was ready to spend his final days in ease at his beloved home of Mount Vernon in Virginia. As much as he looked forward to his retirement from publ
Benjamin Franklin: A Life Lived Usefully
Benjamin Franklin: A Life Lived Usefully
Another memorable book that I have read during my research for my own book on George Washington is The First American: The Life and Times of Benjamin Franklin by H.W. Brands. Franklin and Washington had a long-standing relationship that spanned three decades and they each possessed a deep mutual ârespect and admirationâ for one another. Both men were supremely dedicated to serving their fellow man and making the world a better place. The struggles that they undertook in war and in peace were fun
Alexander Hamilton: Rise to Greatness
Alexander Hamilton: Rise to Greatness
One of the best books that I've read during my research for my own book on George Washington is Ron Chernow's masterpiece, Alexander Hamilton. From their struggles together in war and in peace, the partnership between Washington and Hamilton was indispensable to the founding of the United States of America. As the great Hamilton scholar Stephen Knott has said, "Next to George Washington, Alexander Hamilton is most responsible for the country that you and I have the privilege of living in." How d
