Washington: A Life
by Ron Chernow
🏆 Winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Biography
An expertly told, cradle-to-grave biography of the first US president from the author of Alexander Hamilton—the biography that inspired the hit Broadway musical. “Never before has Washington been rendered so tangibly in such a smart, tenaciously researched volume as Chernow’s opus,” declared the LA Times when it was released in 2010.
