"Humphreys had an opportunity to know Washington's private opinions better than any other person who wrote an account of his early career. Humphrey's interpretation of events may therefore reflect Washington's perceptions of his role in history more faithfully than any other eighteenth-century sources, including Washington's own letters." - Journal of Southern History

AUTHOR
SUMMARY
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.Humphreys, David is the author of 'Life of General Washington', published 2006 under ISBN 9780820328249 and ISBN 0820328243.
