{"product_id":"george-washington-2","title":"George Washington","description":"Recommended by:\nThe American Library Association\nChild Study Association\nNational Council of Teachers of Social Studies\n\n\"He was born in a little red brick house that his father had built on the oyster-shell hill. By that time so much land had been cleared that the wilderness was far in the distance.\"\n\nSo begins the simple and inauspicious life of George Washington, a backwoods Virginia boy destined to become the Father of His Country. Meticulously researched, the d'Aulaires hiked and camped all over Virginia as they imbibed the spirit of this great man.\n\nThe story follows his growth from young boy to surveyor, to soldier in the French and Indian War where he became a war hero. Then George courted Martha Custis and after their marriage they built a plantation at Mount Vernon. Then we see Washington lead his troops through the dark and hungry days of the Revolution. By exhibiting courage and integrity he inspired the same in his men. Beautiful stone lithograph illustrations bring the story to life for readers young and old.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0964380315\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0964380315.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ingri d'Aulaire|Edgar Parin d'Aulaire\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
