When I arrived at home, yesterday, there was a package on the dining room table. The return address: Mount Vernon, Virginia. The contents: two books (pictured left), and a short note: Greetings from Mount Vernon! I actually searched for the former volume at the local public library (to no avail), I was excited to see it in my package as a part of my summer residency at George and Martha's mansion. These will be the next books I read. |
I've recently read these other books (some for children, some for adults) concerning George Washington. I hope that these will also give me some background knowledge to prepare me for a rich visit to Mount Vernon. Of course, George Washington didn't live in a bubble. He came into contact with many other revolutionaries. In addition to video documentaries, I have also read these other books (mostly for child readers) to help familiarize myself with the era.
