| Summary | "The Student's Life of Washington; Condensed from the Larger Work of Washington Irving" is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work condenses the extensive biography of George Washington by Washington Irving, particularly focusing on the key events and characteristics that marked Washington's early life and military career. Aimed at young readers and for use in schools, the book explores the formative years of one of America's most prominent figures. The opening of the text introduces readers to George Washington's lineage, detailing his family's ancient English roots and their emigration to Virginia. It describes his early childhood, upbringing, and education under his mother's guidance and his admiration for his older brother, Lawrence. Washington's initial training in surveying and physical activities reflect his emerging leadership qualities, setting the stage for his future endeavors. As the narrative progresses, it touches upon Washington's youthful experiences and his growing interest in military affairs, foreshadowing his pivotal role in American history.
