Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. In the late 1760s and early 1770s, George Washington more and more was drawn from affairs of home and hearth by involvement in colonial resistance to British policy and by the lure of western lands. This correspondence documents the evolution of Washington's ideas about economic and political relationships within the empire, and helps to explain how he came to hold his particular vision of the West, both things that were to figure largely in his view of the new nation that he helped to create. Most of the correspondence from these four years, however, has to do with matters both more personal and more local: the acquiring of new farms to enlarge the plantation of Mount Vernon, the management of the complex affairs within the plantation and the sale of its products, the construction of a house in Alexandria, a mill on Dogue Run, and a new church at Pohick, moving Mary Washington into Fredericksburg, arranging for the schooling of John Parke Custis, coping with the Colvill estate's complexities, Mrs Savage's mistreatment, John Posey's fecklessness, Benjamin Moore's bankruptcy, and with the revival of the Dunbar suit, and taking the lead in a movement to improve navigation of the Potomac. The two final volumes in the Colonial Series will trace the emergence of Washington as a revolutionary leader and a major figure in western expansion. This correspondence documents the evolution of Washington's ideas about economic and political relationships within the Empire, and helps to explain how he came to hold his particular vision of the West. It also deals with personal and local matters, such as plantation management. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
