Sobre este artículo
904 Pages. First edition by the full number line. The dust jacket is Not price-clipped.
This is a very comprehensive in-depth biography of George Washington done by a celebrated biographer, Ron Chernow. The book's dust jacket has worn areas on all four corners, along both the top and bottom edges and on the back side of it.. The interior book has some damaged areas along the bottom and top edges but outside of those detriments, there are no visible extraneous markings or distractions throughout the book and thus all of its printing and its illustration plates are all in a very well-preserved and enjoyable condition and the book's bindings are tight and therefore are sound.
If you should order this very interesting study of George Washington from us, the book will be carefully wrapped up, then padded and boxed, and mailed right away to you and will come with our absolute appreciation for your order. If shipping outside the continental US, there may be an extra shipping cost due to the book's weight.
Sinopsis
Winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Biography Celebrated biographer Ron Chernow provides a richly nuanced portrait of the father of our nation and the first president of the United States. With a breadth and depth matched by no other one volume biography of George Washington, this crisply paced narrative carries the reader through his adventurous early years, his heroic exploits with the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, his presiding over the Constitutional Convention, and his magnificent performance as America's first president. In this groundbreaking work, based on massive research, Chernow shatters forever the stereotype of George Washington as a stolid, unemotional figure and brings to vivid life a dashing, passionate man of fiery opinions and many moods. “Truly magnificent… [a] well-researched, well-written and absolutely definitive biography” –Andrew Roberts, The Wall Street Journal “Superb… the best, most comprehensive, and most balanced single-volume biography of Washington ever written.” –Gordon S. Wood, The New York Review of Books “A truly gripping biography of George Washington... I can’t recommend it highly enough—as history, as epic, and, not least, as entertainment. It’s as luxuriantly pleasurable as one of those great big sprawling, sweeping Victorian novels.” –Hendrik Hertzberg, The New Yorker
