Book Overview
On a dangerous mission for the British army, young Major Washington had no idea that one day he would lead an army of fellow colonials in a bitter battle for independence against Great Britain herself, the most powerful empire in the world.
In each new crisis, the young United States sought out George Washington. As commander in chief of the Continental army, chairman of the Constitutional Convention, and first president, this indispensable American served the struggling nation when its survival and form hung in the balance (1732-1799).

Wonderful!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I bought this to read to my 5 and 7 year old's at bedtime. We live near Mt. Vernon and I thought this book would be neat in order for them to learn more about George Washington. They like it and I am enjoying it as well! Even at their young ages they understand most of it and I've learned much more about him. I highly recommend this book and these authors (I have also read the George Mueller book--great).
Good Book - Poor Grammar
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book (and most others in the Heroes of History series)is chock full of good information and reads easily in a child-friendly format. There are some "dry" areas, but history can be rather dry at times. My greatest concern is the improper grammar that is scattered liberally throughout every book in the series that I have read. I would prefer to give this book 3 1/2 stars.
