Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of George Washington, Vol. 1 of 3 The following work has long been announced as forth-coming, to the great annoyance of the author. It was, indeed, commenced several years since, but the prosecution of it has been repeatedly interrupted by other occupations, by a long absence in Europe, and by occasional derangement of health. It is only within the last two or three years that I have been able to apply myself to it steadily. This is stated to account for the delay in its publication. The present volume treats of the earlier part of Washington's life previous to the war of the Revolution, giving his expeditions into the wilderness, his campaigns on the frontier in the old French war, and the other "experience," by which his character was formed, and he was gradually trained up and prepared for his great destiny.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of George Washington, Vol. 1 of 5 Though a biography, and of course admitting of fa miliar anecdote, excursive digressions, and a flexible texture of narrative, yet, for the most part, it is essen tially historic. Washington, in fact, had very little pri vate life, but was eminently a public character. All his actions and concerns almost from boyhood were connected with the history of his country. In writing his biography, therefore, I am obliged to take glances over collateral history, as seen from his point of view and influencing his plans, and to narrate distant transactions apparently disconnected with his concerns, but eventually bearing upon the great drama in which he was the principal actor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of George Washington The manuscript for the present volume was nearly ready for the press some months since, but the author, by applying himself too closely in his eagerness to finish it, brought on a nervous indisposition, which unfitted him for a time for the irksome but indispensable task of revision. In this he has been kindly assisted by his nephew, Pierre Munro Irving, who had previously aided him in the course of his necessary researches, and who now carefully collated the manuscript with the works, letters, and inedited documents from which the facts had been derived. He has likewise had the kindness to superintend the printing of the volume, and the correction of the proof sheets. Thus aided, the author is enabled to lay the volume before the public. How far this, the last labor of his pen, may meet with general acceptation is with him a matter of hope rather than of confidence. He is conscious of his own short-comings and of the splendid achievements of oratory of which the character of Washington has recently been made the theme. Grateful, however, for the kindly disposition which has greeted each suc cessive volume, and with a profound sense of the indulgence he has experienced from the public through a long literary career, now extending through more than half a century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of George Washington: Written for the Use of Schools At the age of ten years, he lost his father. An affectionate mother continued to impress those principles of religion and virtue on his tender mind, which constituted the solid basis of a character that was maintained throughout all the trying vicissitudes of an eventful life. But his education was limited to subjects strictly useful, not even extending to foreign languages. At the age of eighteen, he was appointed a surveyor in the western part of the northern neck of Virginia; and, in that office, acquired such information respecting vacant lands, and formed those opinions concerning their future value, which afterwards contributed greatly to the increase of his fortune.
