, “ It is a surprising fact that even the A»
merican People know but. little of George
; Washington. They have in ’e<;d heard a
j great deal of his Public Life \ of ins Mili
tary Character, and Political Taleri -s, but
j hardly'any thing 6f his private Lite aud
Virtues. ... ,
“ Many intelligent persons have ardent*
ly wished to see a faithful account of these,
not only as a debt of gratitude to him, but
as a fine example to cur children.
,“The Author has performed this task,
in a s itisfactory manner. 11 is nee *
dues ofWushmgton present the supreme
excel.ence of religion, with the trpnsceo.
dant dignity, charm and useiuiness of the
respect.ve virtues in domestic, civil and mi
litary scenes. . The moral sensibili.y anti
genius of the writer warms the heart and
imagination ct his readers. His descrip*
tive fancy paints the occasional scenes of
Nature iu pleasing views ; while his Hash
es of comic wit give an agreeable icnet to
the mind, and render the serious truths
more impressive, especially on the youu£
raider.”
