Summary:

George Washington has been sculpted, painted, emulated and deified more than 200 years, but few Americans have any idea who he was. This program explores our first President's relationship with his troops and the revolutionary cause; with his slaves and his fellow founding fathers. It gives us and unconventional look at the man who insisted that America be a democracy.
