520    "As editor of the award-winning Library of America 
       collection of George Washington's writings and a curator 
       of the great man's original papers, John Rhodehamel has 
       established himself as an authority of our nation's 
       preeminent founding father. Rhodehamel examines George 
       Washington as a public figure, arguing that the man--who 
       first achieved fame in his early twenties--is inextricably
       bound to his mythic status. Solidly grounded in 
       Washington's papers and exemplary in its brevity, this 
       approachable biography is a superb introduction to the 
       leader whose name has become synonymous with America"--
