Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Washington, Our Example: The Father of a Nation Will Restore It to Peace
The history of the campaign before Boston is a his tory of successive exertions to surmount almost insu perable obstacles, by one who was solicitous in the extreme to perform some great and useful achievement; and he writes, To be restrained in every military oper ation for want of means to carry it on is not very pleasing, especially as the means used to conceal my weakness from the enemy conceals it also from our friends and adds to their wonder.
