Washington: The Man Behind the Monument
from Amy Lou Out Loud Hosted by Amy Wade
We all know George Washington the president, the general, the face on the dollar bill. But who was George Washington the actual person? After visiting Mount Vernon, standing at George and Martha Washington’s tomb, and learning some things I definitely wasn’t taught in history class, I wanted to know more. The failures. The temper. The terrible teeth. The dogs with ridiculous names. The complicated truths. And the remarkable fact that when Washington was given enormous power, he willingly gave it back. This episode is about the man behind the monument. 🇺🇸
