From School Library Journal:
Grade 4–8—Daniel C. Gedacht's biography (Rosen, 2004) of George Washington presents his life from boyhood through his presidency. The use of personal diaries, letters, and other primary source documents lend an immediacy to the historical information. Listeners learn about Washington the gentleman farmer, army general, and U.S. president. His integrity is stressed, and his growth and development as a leader is presented. Benjamin Becker's narration is adequate, but his Americanization of foreign names becomes annoying. The use of a beep differentiates between text and the author's notes. A time line summarizes events at the end of the book. A good additional purchase for American history and biography collections.—Lonna Pierce, MacArthur Elementary School, Binghamton, NY
