Life of George Washington in Words of One Syllable by Josephine Pollard
By: (1834-1892)

Josephine Pollard's adaptation of George Washington's life in simple language is a perfect introduction for young readers. The use of one-syllable words makes this biography easily accessible and engaging. The book covers Washington's childhood, military career, and presidency in a straightforward and informative manner. Despite the limitations of using only one-syllable words, Pollard manages to convey the importance and impact of Washington's life in a clear and concise way. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for children interested in learning about one of America's founding fathers.

Book Description:
The Life story of a public man cannot help being to some extent the same thing as a history of the times in which he lived, and to the case of none does this remark apply with more force than to that of the "Father of his Country;" which very title shows the degree to which the personality of its bearer became identified with the public life of the nation. While a great deal of the space in this book, consequently, has had to be devoted to American Revolutionary History, it is hoped that excess in this direction has been avoided, and that the main purpose of the work will be attained, i.e. to give its young readers a distinct and vivid idea of the exalted character and priceless services of Washington, so far as these can be brought within the understanding of a child.
