About this listen

Step into the remarkable life of George Washington, an unwavering leader whose dedication to reason and virtue paved the way for American independence against daunting odds. This audiobook offers an abridged version of "Life Stories for Young People: George Washington," a historical narrative by German author Ferdinand Schmidt, translated for American listeners by journalist George P. Upton.

Designed to convey Washington's deep sense of duty and commitment to peace, this biographical tribute delves into his pivotal role as Commander-in-Chief during the American Revolutionary War. Explore Washington's decisive leadership, from the challenging early years of the colonial army to the strategic crossing of the Delaware River, the harsh winter at Valley Forge, and the pivotal battles that shaped the nation's destiny. Despite being written over a century ago, this account illuminates the enduring importance of moral character and leadership exemplified by one of America's greatest presidents.
