The Return of George Washington: Uniting the States, 1783-1789

byEdward J. Larson

"An elegantly written account of leadership at the most pivotal moment in American history" (Philadelphia Inquirer): Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Edward J. The Return of George Washington rests its case on biographical detail, personal testimony, and historical context, making room for uncertainty while explaining what the surviving evidence can establish. The Return of George Washington also examines the assumptions surrounding its subject, connecting them to wider arguments in biography & autobiography and history. The book leaves readers with a clearer understanding of uniting the states, 1783-1789 and of the unresolved questions that continue beyond its final chapter.
