Product Details

Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Joseph J. Ellis offers a concise, highly readable portrait of George Washington, following him from the French and Indian War through the Revolution, presidency, and final years at Mount Vernon. Rather than simply retelling the familiar story, Ellis focuses on Washington’s character, leadership, ambitions, and the choices that helped shape the early United States. This is the 2004 Alfred A. Knopf First Edition, complete with its original dust jacket. A handsome hardcover copy of a well-regarded Washington biography and a nice addition for collectors of presidential history, the Founding Fathers, or American history. See photos for condition.
