So it was a shock when he voluntarily resigned his commission, giving up a powerful position instead of seeking to capitalize upon it. In Barbara Carroll Roberts's carefully researched account, young readers will encounter a nuanced portrayal of Washington and his contemporaries during a moment that would influence the course of a young nation and lead to the creation of a representative democracy of, by, and for the people.
