George Washington, Volume 6
批評家のレビュー
"Freeman's treatment of Washington as a Commander in Chief is virtually definitive" (The New York Times Book Review)
"For the popular, novelized biography, full of glib insights into the inner man, Freeman has nothing but contempt. His dogged intent is to portray Washington day by day and year by year, through each new experience, as if nothing were known and nothing were certain about his future." (Time)
あらすじ・解説
In volume six, Washington finally returns to Mt. Vernon for his long-awaited and well-deserved retirement from public service. But fate has other plans for him.
As Washington concentrates on restoring the fortunes of his beloved Virginia estate, he keeps a nervous eye on the political developments unfolding in Philadelphia. Smoldering resentments and political bickering became increasingly volatile.
Meanwhile, debt incurred by the Continental Congress during the war weighed heavily on the states. Convinced that the states must be bound together with a firm federal hand, Washington pushes for reform. A new convention of the states in 1788 ratified the Constitution that Americans revere to this day. And Americans chose as their leader the only man who could successfully launch this audacious creation and inspire unity. Once again George Washington became the center of the world’s attention as the first president of the United States of America.
