SUMMARY:George Washington: The Perfect Man For America
DESCRIPTION:George Washington is America’s greatest hero.  He was our greatest soldier.  He was also our greatest President.  His contemporaries already knew that he was a man whose importance to the nation could never be questioned.  One of the most honored statesmen of the day had this to say when Washington died: “First in war\, first in peace\, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.” \n \nGeorge Washington was tall\, athletic\, and absolutely fearless.  Yet his military career was cut short before Congress appointed him to be the commanding General\, the head of the Continental Army.  Click here to read a fascinating account of why he is still the highest-ranking American military officer of all time.  Although we remember him as a great General\, his first year of command was disastrous! \nBut then at the Battle of Trenton. General Washington’s courage\, daring\, and heroic leadership became evident to the world.  That battle is best remembered for the breathtaking Christmas crossing of the Delaware River.  Still\, it also holds the amazing distinction of being the first military battle ever fought in an urban setting!  More importantly\, the Battle of Trenton directly changed the course of the history of America – and the entire world!  It is the single most important battle in the history of the USA. \n \nClick here to read more about why the Battle of Trenton is so important to the history of the world. \nAfter the Revolution\, of course\, Washington’s fame and importance only grew.  As the first President of the United States\, he helped turn America from a series of promises laid out in the Declaration of Independence into a living Republic that continues to shine as a beacon of freedom and hope to people and nations around the world. \nThis multimedia presentation will offer a new perspective on the personality of the greatest American of all time! \n
