George Washington wanted to be a Virginia gentleman, like his brother Lawrence... until he got the chance to go on a wilderness trip as a surveyor's assistant. It was a rough-and even dangerous-journey. At times George got discouraged, but his grit and determination kept him going. His early trek into the American frontier was a turning point for George, and he proved he was ready for any challenge... from being a general in the Revolutionary War to becoming the first president of the United States! Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге TAKE THE LEAD GEORGE WASHING2N (ST. GEORGE, JUDITH)
