Description

The story of George Washington is the story of American independence, and this biography illustrates that perfectly. War in the Colonies is the 2nd volume of The Life of George Washington written by Revolutionary war hero and Supreme Court Justice John Marshall. It spans the years 1732 – 1778, from the birth of Washington to the thick of the war for independence. Having set the stage in Volume 1 (Prelude to War) with a history of the colonies, Marshall now focuses on George Washington’s role in those famous events.

Follow Washington from birth through the Battle of Saratoga; from a Major in the British army to Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army. Read about his role in the French and Indian War, in which his noble character and leadership made him an automatic choice to lead Americans in the Revolution.
