 The Real George Washington November 18, 2009
M. Burkitt
I haven't gotten to finish the entire book yet but so far it's great. The book provides facts that every freedom loving United States citizen should know. I've recommended it to all my friends.
A Phenominal History December 23, 2009
J. Rowe (Cleveland, OH)
This is an exceptionaly well written history of arguably our most important Founding Father. I always thought history was pretty boring, but this book brings it to life like no other. George Washington comes alive and we learn so much about him as a man as well as a great General, President and Statesman. This should be on the reading list of every American who cares to know about this great country's beginnings and what our Founders envisioned it to be.
I Absolutely Love this Book! December 24, 2009
Matthew Gilman (Malheur County, Oregon, USA)
This is an awesome book! If you have heard about it by listening to/watching Glenn Beck, and wish to purchase it for your own library, please do so! Now!!!
Buy it and read it for yourselves, and understand what our founding fathers went through to bring our republic into being. You'll understand just how precarious our position really was from the mid 1770s until well into the Washington administration.
Do not let the book's thickness deter you. The main text is 614 pages, but it reads quickly, and is written so that the average person can understand it. The rest of the book contains quotes attributed to Pres. Washington as well as an extensive bibliography (itself, about 120 pages).
People on the left have derided the book for one or more reasons, and you can read their reviews and respond to them if you wish. I find their arguments against the book, however, quite lacking in substance after having read it. In fact, the wordier the derision, the more lacking the argument. Just my opinion, though.
As to my own feelings/thoughts about the book: like I said at the outset of my review, this is an awesome book! You will not be disappointed, unless you are one of those people whose life's mission is to find fault with everything.
Great Book, Great Man! February 4, 2010
R. Brocke (Bay City, MI USA)
This book should be required reading for all high school students and all American citizens, for that matter. It reveals what a true and brave hero George Washington was as a General, but also what an incredibly good man he was as a person. This book gave me a real appreciation for the tremendous cost of our free country. When you read the book you will come to understand that there are so many times when things could have happened just a little differently and the USA would never have been born! It's a very thick book, but the last third of it or so is references and extra stuff. Please read this and then give it to someone else to read!

Wonderful. Very Good Reading. All Americans should read this as well as others. It makes you wonder why we have drifted so far left.
