Wiencek, Henry New York City, New York Farrar, Straus & Giroux 2003 0374175268 / 9780374175269 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good Very Good
; 404 pages with index; First Edition/First Printing; Map; Black & white illustrations of paintings; Book block is tight & square; Unmarked internally; Beige & brown boards with title in gold to spine; Unfaded pictorial dust-jacket with no tears & modest shelf & edge wear; We have placed the dust-jacket in a protective, removable, clear mylar cover; ....(This biography of the first President of the United States shows how George Washington was born and raised among blacks and mixed-race people, and how he and his wife had blood ties to the slave community. Yet as a young man he bought and sold slaves without scruple. Then on the Revolutionary battlefields where he commanded both black and white troops, Washington's attitudes began to change. Though Washington and the other framers enshrined slavery in the Constitution, the author here shows that even before Washington became president, he began to see the system's evil. Acting too late to keep the new republic from perpetuating slavery, it appears from the information here that the repentance of George Washington was genuine. Based on meticulous examinaton of private papers, court records and archives, the author documents the moral transformation of George Washington.)
