From an acclaimed military historian, a bold reappraisal of young George Washington, an ambitious if reckless soldier destined to become the legendary general who took on the British and, through his leadership,ย defined the American character
How did George Washington become an American icon? Robert L. OโConnell, the New York Times bestselling author of Fierce Patriot and The Ghosts of Cannae, introduces us to Washington before he was Washington: a young soldier champing at the bit for a commission in the British army, frustrated by his position as a minor Virginia aristocrat. Fueled by ego, Washington led a disastrous expedition in the Seven Yearsโ War, but then the commander grew up. We witness George Washington take up politics and join Virginiaโs colonial governing body, the House of Burgesses, where he became ever more attuned to the injustices of life under the British Empire and the paranoid, revolutionary atmosphere of the colonies. When war seemed inevitable, he was the right manโthe only manโto lead the nascent American army.
We would not be here without George Washington, and OโConnell proves that Washington the general was at least as significant to the founding of the United States as Washington the president. He emerges here as cunning and manipulative, a subtle puppeteer among intimates, and a master cajolerโbut all in the cause of rectitude and moderation. Washington became the embodiment of the Revolution itself. He draped himself over the revolutionary process and tamped down its fires. As OโConnell writes, the war was decisive because Washington managed to stop a cycle of violence with the force of personality and personal restraint.
In his trademark conversational, witty style, Robert L. OโConnell has written a compelling reexamination of General Washington and his revolutionary world. He cuts through the enigma surrounding Washington to show how the general made all the difference and became a new archetype of revolutionary leader in the process. Revolutionary is a masterful character study of Americaโs founding conflict filled with lessons about conspiracy, resistance, and leadership that resonate today.
Advance praise for Revolutionary
โGiven the amount of ink spilled over the years, it is not easy to offer a fresh look at George Washingtonโs leadership role during the war for American independence. But Robert L. OโConnell has done it in Revolutionary. The title announces the insight, which is the otherwise uncontrollable political and military energies released by the war that Washington was able to orchestrate.โโJoseph J. Ellis, author of American Dialogues: The Founders and Us
