Description
George Washington and the Founders Create America by Thomas B. Allen is a meticulously researched account of 1789, a pivotal year in U.S. history that saw the birth of a new nation. As the government outlined in the Constitution took shape, the Founders faced an unprecedented challenge: creating a functional federal system from scratch. With no precedents to follow and no historical facts to draw upon, they were left with "bare creation" - a daunting task that required careful consideration and deliberation. Veteran journalist Thomas B. Allen brings his expertise and storytelling skills to this long-hidden history, drawing on hundreds of sources to paint a vivid portrait of the new nation and its leaders as they navigated the complexities of establishing a government.
