Grand Idea: George Washington's Potomac and the Race to the West Paperback - 2005
by Joel Achenbach
Achenbach captures a Washington rarely seen: rugged frontiersman, real estate speculator, shrewd businessman. The general tangles with squatters; gathers data on trails, portages, falls, and rapids; and imagines a future Empire of Liberty.
First line
THE MAN WHO could have been king was just a farmer now, at peace with the world.
