Young Washington LP

Bag om Young Washington LP

A new, brash, and unexpected view of the president we thought we knew, from the bestselling author of AstoriaTwo decades before he led America to independence, George Washington was a flailing young soldier serving the British Empire in the vast wilderness of the Ohio Valley. Naïve and self-absorbed, the twenty-two-year-old officer accidentally ignited the French and Indian War?a conflict that opened colonists to the possibility of an American revolution.With powerful narrative drive and vivid writing, Young Washington recounts the wilderness trials, controversial battles, and emotional entanglements that transformed Washington from a temperamental striver into a mature leader. By weaving to-gether Washington's harrowing wilderness adventures and a broader histor-ical context, Young Washington offers new in-sights into the dramatic years that shaped the man who shaped a nation.
