Excellent biography of George Washington. I have read a lot of book specifically on Washington, as well as on the American Revolution where Washington is one of the key players. Every time I read about him I get a bit more information, a little different angle or perspective. In this book, Beck does an excellent job of talking about Washington as a person - his character, his beliefs, his personality, and what drove and motivated him to do the things he did, and to be able to achieve all that he did. He gives you a great insight into the person, as well as making history come alive from Washington's perspective. Excellent book if you enjoy American History. And especially in today's times, I wish more people would read more about it.
