Biografía
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 Mary’s life was always unlucky when it came to family. Her husband died in 1743, and she was left to support her five children and twenty-three slaves by herself. She sold off some of the family’s best tracts, but British merchants had a monopoly on trade, and they couldn’t be depended on to deal fairly.
#2 Mary could have remarried, but she wasn’t interested. She was too busy working on the farm and with her children. She made sure to keep close tabs on her stepsons, Lawrence and George.
#3 Washington’s mother, Mary, was against his enlistment in the British Royal Navy. She had good reason to believe that it was a terrible idea, as her son would be subjugated and low-ranking. But Washington went ahead with it anyway.
#4 Washington’s interest in the navy was probably less about the experience than the twenty-three shillings a month he would have earned. The situation at Ferry Farm was becoming dire. His mother, however, would not allow him to join the navy.
