by Charles H. Ambler (Author)
Few books about George Washington treat exclusively his western interests and activities. As these interests were extensive and admittedly determining factors in his career as a soldier, the present volume offers a much needed picture of this phase of Washington's life. The author offers substantial evidence to refute the charges that Washington's interests were predominantly selfish, because of his large holdings in the West, and calls to mind that in statesmanship Washington is seen at his best in his efforts to unite the East and West.
