Description

The United States was once conceived in business, founded on business, and operated as a business-all on account of the entrepreneurial mind of the greatest American businessman of any generation: George Washington.

Using Washington’s extensive but incessantly overpassed financial papers, Edward G. Lengel chronicles the fascinating and inspiring story of how this self-educated man built the Mount Vernon estate into a vast multilayered enterprise and prudently managed meager resources to win the war of independence. Later, as president, he helped establish the national economy on a solid footing and favorably located the nation for the Industrial Revolution. Washington’s steadfast commitment to the core economic principles of probity, transparency, careful management, and calculated boldness are timeless lessons that are meant to inspire and instruct investors even nowadays.

First Entrepreneur will change into how extraordinary Americans consider George Washington and how his success in commercial enterprise influenced and guided the emerging nation.
