George Washington: Gentleman Warrior

American Independence Museum
George Washington called himself a warrior during the height of the American Revolution in 1779. British author Stephen Brumwell presents an overlooked side of Washington: the feisty young frontier officer and later the tough 40-something commander of the Continental Army. Brumwell's newest book, George Washington: Gentleman Warrior, presents an image different than the one assigned to Washington by history: the patriotic plantation owner who became dignified political leader of the country.
