The Life of George Washington: Special Edition for Schools

The biography of George Washington, authored by John Marshall, was first published in five volumes shortly after Washington's death. This 1849 abridged version is highlighted for its masterful portrayal of Washington, as noted by Charles A Beard. The new Liberty Fund edition enhances the text with an editors' foreword, notes, and maps of significant battle campaigns, making it a valuable resource for students and readers interested in American history.
