but in that middle two days when you're talking about the confederation you hear nothing about george washington. he disappeared. they say he went home to his -- mt. vernon and was a farmer again. even if you read biographies of washington, even great ones even the multivolume ones, when they get to this period, they say he went home to mt. vernon. they talk about him as a farmer. there's something to say about him as a farmer. ... nine years without pay or leave leading the american army during the revolution the person who sent soldiers to their death, if he was very close to his officers many of them died, a person who does all this is sacrificed everything for the cause of independence of america, and also was motivated more than by power, more than by money, motivated by a desire tovated bydesi leavere a legacy. and his legacy was as he always called it, a government of thea people where there was no republicanf government. rld. they were all monarchies or some sort of dictatorship and he h wanted to create a government of the people. he saw it all collapsing. he wouldn't care. you just sit

and that will be george washington. the big hero of the day. equal now to franklin as far as american fame goes. so washington will take the lead in the constitutional convention. in fact, the very chair and the back of the room behind me is the chair in which washington sat, which interestingly is the only item in this room that we today have in this room that we know for certain was here as a part of this event. that chair was made in 1779 after the british had left philadelphia. a lot of things were gone. between the americans coming and going, the british. we do not have all the contents of the building anymore. so, pennsylvania's government has to make your furniture including that share for the speaker -- including that chair. so that was in the room on that spot when washington to deposition in 1787. so the virginia plan three branches of government, somewhat familiar today. here are some of the issues that will face that plan as far as when you start debating. because other plans are going to get thrown out by other men. virginia's plan,

and morris is a friend of george washington. there is a story that comes from that summer with morris and alexander hamilton and basically there is a bet made that morris. -- that hamilton makes with morris. washington is this very formal guide who doesn't even like the shake cans he prefers to bow. he can be aloof, especially in public. so, hamilton is like, you're never going to do that. i will bet you dinner. of course, morris does it. and washington gives him one of those glaring looks. i am sure hamilton is laughing like mad. but gouverneur morris is going to write that "we the people in -- of the united states in order to form a perfect union," the famous preamble. so, at the end of the day, you have this constitution. by september 15, 1787, four pages, that is all it is. there is no bill of rights at that time. they talked about it. alexander hamilton would say we do not need one. the whole thing is a bill of rights. the government is only going to have the power we give it, so why do we need it? others would say we would

there were letters welcoming the marquis' new son who was named george washington lafayette. nother letter, washington admitted he was reluctant to visit his friend in paris because he did not speak the language and feared the french women would find him awkward. the two men even corresponded over their experience and subjects of the famous french sculptor rodan. and today, both of those priceless works are in our rotunda in the capital in richmond. the two men debated serious issues confronting our new nation. the marquis tried to persuade washington to free his own slaves in an effort to encourage a national emancipation. washington agreed with the goal but did not believe the country would accept it. he let this crucial opportunity pass without acting. the marquis was brave enough and wise enough to see in his new friend and this nation a greater good than we were able to see in ourselves. we settled for less. to the marquis' great sadness for far too many years. i would like to think that today , washington and his good friend would be pleased at the progress since this sh

they had a theater named george washington who at times wage to brilliant campaigns at a trenton and princeton and even germantown where he didn't win but john adams said that germantown so impressed the french that it was washington's daring that led the french to finally decide to ally with with the americans. washington i think was a good administrator. he was a symbol around which people could rally. there was no hint of scandal on washington's part during this long war. he made a great many mistakes as a field commander and as a strategist i think that overall the conclusion that i reached was that the country was fortunate to have had washington and lucky to have survived some of the mistakes that he made and was also fortunate to have nathaniel greene who waged an absolutely brilliant campaign in the south in 1781 so much so that i argue in the book that it was in the south that the war was actually won one by the colonists in 1781. the militia was crucial for the americans house while. thousands and thousands of militiamen served into the war couldn't have been won without at

but george washington was aware of this contradiction. he was aware of this conflict. and, certainly one of the themes in the first chapter about yorktown is the fact that these three young men -- alexander hamilton, the marquis de lafayette and another fellow named jack lawrence who are the washington men that the chapter's named for -- were probably, they're all in their mid 20s. they were very, very close friends. they had been with washington through all of the defeats and disasters and disappointments. but these three were probably the most outspoken proponents of putting black soldiers in uniform. jack lawrence -- john lawrence -- was a lieutenant colonel. he's there in yorktown that night. he's fixed his bayonet. he was the son of henry lawrence, the president of congress. and henry lawrence had made his fortune trading slaves, shipping slaves to america as many as 8,000 is the estimate i've read. lawrence was sent to england and europe as a young man to be educated, got completely caught up with the ideals of the enlightenment and came back a complete abolition
