Editorial Reviews:

Review:

"Ellis has a gift for getting inside the skins of his subjects and showing what makes them tick...To demystify this larger-than-life, quasi-divine personage, to make him understandable as a human being, is the formidable task Ellis has set for himself. By and large, he succeeds."

Forrest McDonald, New York Review of Books, 11/07/2004

Review:

"Readers who are familiar with the vast array of writings about Washington will not find much that is new or original in Ellis's book. But they will find his usual engaging style of writing. He has a wonderful knack for summing up a mass of complicated material in a few pithy sentences."

Gordon S. Wood, New Republic, 12/20/2004
