George Washington's Providence is an entertaining and enlightening new book that follows the

amazing survivability of one of our country’s most historical figures. Filled with factual and proven information, this

illuminating book shows us all why Washington truly thought he was protected by

Providence. Documenting his close brushes with death not only on the

battlefield but with the major diseases of his time, this wonderful book

provides readers with the backstory and reasoning as to how and why he believed

Providence was the answer.  Recommended

reading to everyone who wants to broaden their knowledge about our country, our

history, our forefathers and so many interesting dimensions of George

Washington.
