A clear, stirring meditation on power, character, and nation-making. This intimate study asks not what Washington did, but why his choices shaped a republic as much as a revolution.

The book unfolds a Washington character study through a transatlantic historical perspective, linking eighteenth century america to broader currents of political thought, including echoes in alexis de tocqueville works and thomas paine writings.

A clear, stirring meditation on power, character, and nation-making. This intimate study asks not what Washington did, but why his choices shaped a republic as much as a revolution. In Guizot's lucid historical biography analysis, Washington emerges as a singular figure whose leadership helped fuse virtue with practical governance. The book unfolds a Washington character study through a transatlantic historical perspective, linking eighteenth century america to broader currents of political thought, including echoes in alexis de tocqueville works and thomas paine writings. It is at once a political essay on leadership and a humane, readable narrative that invites both casual readers and serious students of history to explore how ideals informed action, and how action, in turn, refined those ideals. Its themes-revolutionary leadership influence, virtuous republican ideals, and the enduring tension between liberty and authority-resonate in today's classrooms and living rooms alike. A note on significance: Guizot's work sits at the intersection of biography, political philosophy, and historical narrative, offering a rich lens for history classroom use and university teaching resource alike. This edition has been lovingly restored for today's and future generations. Selling points are woven into the story: out of print for decades, now republished by Alpha Editions; restored for today's readers and beyond; more than a reprint-this is a collector's item and a cultural treasure for scholars and curious readers alike.
