| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | Washington emerges from these pages as one of history's greatest men, who nonetheless made great mistakes; whose passions sometimes got the better of his self - control; whose achievements in war and in peace were hard won and not always successfully sustained. Washington was for twenty four years ( from his election as commander in chief to his death ) the most conspicuous and influential man in the United States. |
