George Washington's war
the forging of a Revolutionary leader and the American presidency
by Bruce Chadwick
The American Revolution was not won on the battlefields, but first in the mind of George Washington. Focusing on decisions made by George Washington during his army's winter encampments at Morristown and Valley Forge, the author argues that the future president developed a model of leadership for dealing with national emergencies when he campaigned to secure emergency supplies for his troops. George Washington's War is an extraordinary work that reveals how the general created a new model of leadership that would become the foundation of the nation and the model for the American presidency. - Publisher.
