NOTES
This book delivers a survey the years from 1789 to 1800 in American government, concentrating on President George Washington and his Cabinet members. The author, a college professor and political analyst, also served in the Woodrow Wilson presidential administration in the early twentieth century. His assessment of Washington's ability centered on Washington's good judgment, and careful, methodical approach to problem solving. Not entirely a civics lesson, this book contains interesting biographical vignettes as well, including descriptions of the first President's clothing, horses, carriages, his levees (parties) and hospitality
