Title
His Excellency: George Washington
Author
Joseph J. Ellis
Professor of History – Mount Holyoke College
Publication Date
2004
Reason for Reading
With all the talk recently about what the Founding Fathers intended for the country, I’ve had an increased curiosity about the American Revolution and the people involved in starting it. I figured Washington to be a good place to start and wasn’t disappointed in my selection. Both Washington as a topic and Ellis as an author were good. Ellis has written a number of books on the period, and his reputation seems to be quite good. He won the Pulitzer for his book Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation.
