“It is a surprising fact that even the Au
merican People know but little of George
Washington. They have '.nderd heard &
great deal of his Public Life ; of hia Mili
tary Character, and Political Talents, but
hardly any thing of his private Life and
Virtues. --
“ Many intelligent persons.have ardent*
ly wished to see a faithful account of these,
not only as a debt of gratitude to him, tut
as a fine example to our children.
“The Author has performed this task
in a very satisfactory manner. His Anec*
dotes of Washington present the supremo
excellence of religion, with the transccn
dant dignity, charm and usefulness of the
respective viitucs in domestic, civil and mi
litary scenes. Tlxe moral sensibility and
genius of the writer warms the heart and
imagination of his readers. His de^crip*
tive fancy paints the occasicnal scenes of
Nature in pleasing views ; while his flash
es of comic wit give an agreeable relief to
the mirtd, and render the serious truths
more impressive, especially on ti,e young
reader.”
