Reviews
This useful monograph raises important questions and should prompt scholars to reexamine the role of religion in Washington's personal life and public career., This is likely the best book that will ever be written on Washington and religion, and it may be as close as we will come to an understanding of Washington's Christianity.

Synopsis
Attempts by evangelical Christians to claim Washington and other founders as their own, and scholars' ongoing attempts to contradict these claims, are nothing new. Particularly after Washington was no longer around to refute them, legends of his Baptist baptism or secret conversion to Catholicism began to proliferate. Mount Vernon researcher Mary Thompson endeavors to get beyond the current preoccupation with whether Washington and other founders were or were not evangelical Christians to ask what place religion had in their lives. Thompson follows Washington and his family over several generations, situating her inquiry in the context of new work on the place of religion in colonial and postrevolutionary Virginia and the Chesapeake. Thompson considers Washington's active participation as a vestryman and church warden as well as a generous donor to his parish prior to the Revolution, and how his attendance declined after the war. He would attend special ceremonies, and stood as godparent to the children of family and friends, but he stopped taking communion and resigned his church office. Something had changed, but was it Washington, the church, or both? Thompson concludes that he was a devout Anglican, of a Latitudinarian bent, rather than either an evangelical Christian or a Deist. The meaning of this description, Thompson allows, when applied to eighteenth-century Virginia gentlemen, is far from self-evident, leaving ample room for speculation., Follows Washington and his family over generations, situating the author's inquiry in the context of new work on the place of religion in colonial and postrevolutionary Virginia and the Chesapeake. This title considers Washington's active participation as a vestryman and church warden and a generous donor to his parish prior to the Revolution.

    My maps arrived early! Exemplary job wrapping my boxed set maps and protecting them from harm in shipment. The extra bubble-wrap kept them safe from postal abuse. (Your detailed item description and low bidding price made the sale over your competitors.) I look forward to doing business with you again. Thank you very much!

    The purchased book is in perfect, sealed condition. It is exactly as described, and it looks like it literally just came from the publisher. The shipping packaging was quite exceptional, too! Better than Amazon! Great value for the purchase price.
