Synopsis
This story of Washington, simply told and charmingly illustrated, introduces young readers to the events in the life of the first President of United States.
As a young man of 16, George helped survey the wilderness beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains, keeping a journal of everything he saw. A few years later he inherited Mount Vernon from his older brother Lawrence, whom he idolized. Over the decades he took part in the French and Indian War, attended the first Continental Congress, and then commanded the Army during the War for Independence.
After eight years of war, he was finally able to return to his peaceful, beloved Mount Vernon. Children will delight in looking into his home, viewing the grounds with the President and Nelly Custis.
Written in 1949, this title was selected as a Newbery Honor book in 1950.
