This biography of George Washington - the only one authorized by the general himself - was written by his close friend and military aide David Humphreys. It offers a rare, intimate glimpse of Washington's life, from his birth in 1732 until his assumption of the presidency in 1789. After reviewing a portion of the manuscript, he added a section of ""Remarks,"" which reveals a personal side that he seldom exposed in his letters or other writings. In a remarkable feat of historical detective work, Rosemarie Zagarri assembled manuscripts from three separate archives to reconstruct and publish the complete biography along with Washington's ""Remarks.
