George Washington: Integrity and the Founding of America

By John Ridpath
Recorded February 21, 2005

George Washington

The Founders of America all viewed George Washington as their leader, and many of them, including Jefferson, Adams, Madison and Hamilton, held him in awe. Washington was indeed a man of heroic courage and unbending integrity. In this lecture John Ridpath presents the struggle behind America’s founding, the intellectual context of the time and the central role that integrity plays in that struggle—as exemplified in the life and career of Washington.
