George Washington: Father of His Country and First President
This presentation explores the extraordinary life and enduring legacy of George Washington, America’s indispensable Founding Father. Journey through his origins in colonial Virginia, his rise as a frontier surveyor and military leader, and his pivotal role as Commander-in-Chief during the Revolutionary War. Discover how Washington’s perseverance at Valley Forge and strategic brilliance at Yorktown secured American independence. Transitioning from war hero to nation builder, Washington’s presidency set the standard for American democracy.
