Description
The Enduring Wisdom Of George Washington
We are being assaulted in all directions by media sources from various revisionist historians, most notably, critical race theory (CRT). It's difficult to sift through the conflicting information and discern the actual foundational principles, responsible for the formation of our nation. The best way to resolve this conundrum is by referring to the original founding documents, or documents written by the founders themselves. This book is a resource that will enable you to research the history and writings of George Washington, along with a selection of primary founding documents. This volume is not exhaustive in scope, but will aid in getting you started in the right direction.
The inspiration for this volume came as the result of me purchasing a book entitled, "Giants of the Republic", originally published in 1895. This book was compiled and edited by Hamilton Wright Mabie, written by a corps of competent biographers. My original intent was to transcribe the entire work and make it available on Amazon, as a paperback and Kindle volume for historical purposes. The first chapter was devoted to George Washington and it became apparent to me the wealth of available subject matter, that could be included in a book devoted to the "Father of our Country."
This man was clearly without parallel in the history of our nation. We can learn much about the founding principles of our nation through becoming familiar with the writing of our founders. Washington was a central driving force in formulating many of our founding doctrines. His military prowess and political mastery combined to solidify the forming of this union.
This book presents a brief history of the life of George Washington, founder of the republic and father of our country. General George Washington's leadership role in the major battles of the Revolutionary War are also covered. Other resources provided are a collection of quotes, speeches, prayers, letters from George Washington, including his farewell address, last will and testament, and the fable of the cherry tree.
This is the indispensable volume containing the life and writings of George Washington. This handy reference guide provides a wellspring of information to help you discover, in greater depth, the unparalleled character of the man known as the father of our country.
