Henry B. Carrington reviews the military career of General George Washington, tracing his life and military ascendancy from the militias of Virginia to the victory over Cornwallis at Yorktown. He presents us with an in-depth discussion of what Washington accomplished against such great odds with "neither the troops, resources and knowledge, nor the broad range of field service which have characterized modern warfare."
