Amiable @Librarybelle I highly recommend the Chernow bio if you have the time for it—it‘s the best presidential bio I‘ve ever read. (So far.) 2w

Librarybelle That‘s good to know, @Amiable ! Thank you! 2w

OutsmartYourShelf Just about to start the Chernow one. Happy reading everyone. 2w

Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle can‘t go wrong with Chernow! (My phone changed that to Cheetos which might also be true.) 2w

AshleyHoss820 I have previously read His Excellency: George Washington by Joseph J. Ellis and loved it. For this challenge, I‘m going with a book about Washington‘s military prowess during the American Revolutionary War! So far, I can tell Philbrick is going to be a dope storyteller!

In the Hurricane's Eye: The Genius of George Washington and the Victory at Yorktown

Amiable @AshleyHoss820 I‘m reading another Philbrick book right now, too! 6d

AshleyHoss820 @Amiable Is it Violent Ambition? Or which one? 👀👀 I‘ll add it to my stack! 😊 4d

Amiable @AshleyHoss820 it‘s this one

Travels with George: In Search of Washington and His Legacy

AshleyHoss820 @Amiable Okay, that one looks so good! Stacked! Thank you for the rec! 4d
