Founding Spirits: George Washington and the Beginnings of the American Whiskey Industry is a non-fiction book by author Dennis J. Pogue. The book centers on George Washington's little-known role as the owner of one of the largest whiskey distilleries in 18th-century America. Book summary Pogue, a historian and archaeologist who served as Mount Vernon's Vice President of Preservation, utilizes the plantation's documents to explore Washington's distillery business. Following his second presidential term, Washington opened the distillery with the help of his Scottish farm manager, James Anderson. The business quickly grew into the most profitable of all of Washington's commercial ventures, and the book details how this enterprise contributed to the origins of the American whiskey industry. The book also discusses the social role of alcoholic beverages in Colonial American society and dispels the myth that Washington was a non-drinker.
