年前的美国大选,看特朗普和希拉里的针锋相对,着实让人捏了一把冷汗,尽管最后以希拉里的败北而告终,但我们不禁好奇美国的大选制度是如何诞生的,这就要追溯到美国刚建立时,也就不得不提到美国的缔造者乔治·华盛顿。此前,我对华盛顿的了解一直停留在中学历史课本里,他领...
评分关于乔治·华盛顿,我们知道多少?我们也许知道,他是美国独立战争的领导人之一,是大陆军的总司令,是美国第一任总统,开创了美国总统最多任期两届的制度——美国历史上唯一连任超过两届(连任四届,病逝于第四届任期中)的富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福除外,那是非常时期。由于...
评分华盛顿的历史地位自不待言,亨利·李曾用了“三个第一”来形容美国的国父:“战争中的第一人,和平时期的第一人,同胞心目中的第一人”。对于这样一个伟人,很多传记作家、艺术家都不吝笔墨,大肆渲染其伟大光辉的形象,甚至将其捧至云端,奉为圣人。但在美国传记作家约瑟夫·J...

To this landmark biography of our first president, Joseph J. Ellis brings the exacting scholarship, shrewd analysis, and lyric prose that have made him one of the premier historians of the Revolutionary era. Training his lens on a figure who sometimes seems as remote as his effigy on Mount Rushmore, Ellis assesses George Washington as a military and political leader and a man whose “statue-like solidity” concealed volcanic energies and emotions.
Here is the impetuous young officer whose miraculous survival in combat half-convinced him that he could not be killed. Here is the free-spending landowner whose debts to English merchants instilled him with a prickly resentment of imperial power. We see the general who lost more battles than he won and the reluctant president who tried to float above the partisan feuding of his cabinet. His Excellency is a magnificent work, indispensable to an understanding not only of its subject but also of the nation he brought into being.
