Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from George Washington, Vol. 1 of 2 The position of Washington in the historical annals of the United States was determined before his death. The century that has passed since that event has only confirmed the judgment of his contemporaries, and changed but little the eminence conferred upon him. He stands at this time for what is best and highest in public policy and political morality; and his name is still sought to give support to aims but little in consonance with his expressed opinions. An Englishman and conservative by origin and temperament, he became the central figure in the Revolution, the very embodiment of the radicalism of the day. Successful in winning independence for his country, he again became a conservative, a check upon the rampant dishonesty, the product of war and paper money, that threatened the union of the States. As President he was the great source of federal power, and maintained a balance between the contending factions which would mould the government to serve their own extreme ends.
