Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This book is a major contribution to Washington scholarship.--Washington Times

Amazon.com Review:
One of the most popular words in American politics today is 'character.' Authors Spalding and Garrity present George Washington not only as a president of impeccable personal credentials, but also as a man who had important lessons for the American people regarding the character of their leaders. These lessons are embodied in his Farewell Address, which is best remembered for its warning against foreign entanglements. Yet it's really a meditation on how a nation can cultivate the habits, morals and civic virtues necessary for stable self-government. Bonus for history buffs: Daniel Boorstin writes the introduction.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good analysis of Pres. Washington's Farewell Address
Easily the finest president this nation has ever had (especially in light of the scumbag currently inhabiting that high office), and easily one of th e most enlightened and moral men at the time of the founding of the United States of America.

The authors not only do an excellent job of reviewing the background of Washington's farewell address, but they give interesting insight into the background and morality of President Washington. Well worth the money.
