Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Copies of the Wills of General George Washington: The First President of the United States and of Martha Washington, His Wife Fairfax County, in Virginia, was organized in 1742 and the records of this County contain some very interesting as well as instructive facts. It is not the purpose of the designer of this little book to dwell too much in detail, but otherwise with his knowledge of the records of the County to give the articles herein in as few words as possible, and he will endeavor to use the quaint expressions and spelling verbatim et literatim. This book will have few illustrations, as it is the designer´s object to try and put it on the market with as little cost as possible, so that all may have an opportunity to possess this important little bit of history. It is also needless to dwell on the character and ability of that great Chieftain and our fellow "Man," who has been eulogized by some of the greatest men. The reader is requested to turn to page 56 and read "The Passing Away of Washington," written by Capt. W. H. Snowden, of Arcturus, Va. (who has, by the way, published some very interesting books on Virginia and Maryland, and I here refer all readers of history to his books which can be procured from him at little cost). Apart from the fact that Washington was our first President and Commander of our "Victorious Soldiers" in our sore trials; his will teaches us wisdom and kindness to our fellow-man; it also teaches us to love and honor our country and never to hesitate to say a word in its behalf. The social and political problems we are now face to face with were also worries of this great man. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
