Overview
There is perhaps no better known national hero in the United States than George Washington—patriot, revolutionary, leader of the Continental Army, constitutional collaborator, and, of course, first president of the United States. What made this modest Virginian so well respected and loved, not only in his own time but still today? How has he become such a powerful national symbol? In what ways has his name lived on? Using thorough research and attention to detail, Donald E. Howard examines Washington's life and legacy, vividly describing not just the unique histories of some of the most notable towns named after Washington, but, in effect, the story of an entire nation.
