A Great and Good Man, a fascinating collection of documents from Washington's era, demonstrates the remarkable esteem in which Washington was held. Here we see Washington as he stood before and was addressed by the nation-praised by politicians, advised by foreigners, and lionized by citizens. In Washington's own letters and addresses we also glimpse the canny side of Washington, a man who was careful with his public image and was a shrewd gamesman in the political arena.
