Riassunto

Excerpt from George Washington

Sagacity was his strongest quality and was to serve him in various crises in his later life.

Tall, rather raw-boned, earnest, acquisitive, observant, he foreshadowed in his boyhood the steadiness and consistency, the calmness and the resolution of his manhood.

Much of his time was spent on the estate of Mount Vernon on the Potomac, which he after wards inherited from his elder brother, Lawrence, and there he learned the business Of a planter. Under his management Mount Vernon became one Of the finest estates in the country. The principal crop was tobacco, as it was of all other large estates.
