Annotation |
A biography of Mary Ball Washington, the strong-willed mother of the first president. Mary married Augustine Washington, a widower with two children, at the age of twenty-one (considered late at that time). George was their first child. Mary, who preferred living on a farm without close neighbors, never condoned George's soldiering, remained loyal to King George, smoked a pipe, and died at age eighty-one. For grades 2-4.
