"As the chief editor of the Papers of George Washington, Edward G. Lengel [the author of This Glorious Struggle] is the perfect author to rescue Washington from the reams of outrageous nonsense that have circulated about him for two centuries. With irrepressible wit and gusto, a keen satiric eye, and impeccable scholarship, he dissects one preposterous canard after another in a style that is both entertaining and authoritative. This delightful book immediately become essential reading for anyone even remotely interested in setting the record straight about George Washington."—Ron Chernow
