Analysis Of The Book ' Into The Wild ' By Jon Krakauer

George Washington became the first president of the United States soon after winning the war against Great Britain, America becoming the first independent 13 colonies. Since the beginning of his presidency people trusted him, being the one who led the country to victory as the General, contributed to people having faith in him. It states in the book that he chose the Country’s well-being before his own and often made decision following his gut, “he took pains to elevate the public good over private interest and projected honesty and honor over ambition.”(Johnson) Washington took great responsibility and honor of the New build Nation, he didn’t take matters lightly choosing what was best for his country. During his presidency, he was a visionary

He contributed many key parts to the success of the American independence and led the American army into some of their most important battles to give them independence. In most cases, “t​he situation was worse than they realized, and no one perceived this as clearly as Washington. Seeing things as they were, and not as he would wish them to be,

He had to quickly give up on the whole illusion that we still have a chance at treasures of their day which plays later plays a major role in the US today that we no longer fight for freedom but we fight to hold peace and to protect our self but back then during the revolution people we fighting for a chance at making a new country and that our liberty will always defeat enemy that fight for just money or glory. Joseph shows that George Washington had come to realize that he had to quickly give up the idea that he will always have army and that he will have soldier that from other countries and different state like Massachusetts or Maryland . He tells us how that many of those people would end up soldiers who would joined them to help them through the war and would be a military that would be discipline but at the same time as violation which they understood that they would have to be in order to win each of their individual liberty. He tells us how Washington was in the British military and was train by them but he also did training by himself which would have a side effect of his training. It would cause Washington to avoid major battles but it will ultimately turn out that this will resort in his successful. My understanding of the from reading these page that Washington didn’t fight for independence but fought for independence but what happens we know that he did not fight his battle alone from basic knowledge we know that Washington

Washington was not interested, nor wanted, permanent alliances as it could backfire on the U.S. Washington did not want different political parties as it would tear this country apart and he felt his job was to unify the U.S, not to tear it apart. Washington’s job was to make a stronger bond and he wouldn’t accomplish this by favoring one political party out of many, and that’s why he felt there should be no separation of political powers. Washington made sure to remind them to keep their liberty and freedom, because without it there whole work was for nothing.

June 1755, George Washington Became Commander in Chief but to many patriots he was much more than the Commander in Chief. He became the calm voice to those who needed it, George Washington was known to be strongly determined and held a heavy load of the patriotic duty to country. George Washington was the real backbone into the Revolution war and kept it from going under during the hardships and unexpected trials and tribulations that occurred during the long years of war. Without General Washington as the commander and chief, it’s believed that the unthinkable and imaginable could never have succeeded. His faith in the cause and his devotion to the ideals it embodied made him the symbol of America — the spirit of the Revolution. http://www.ushistory.org/valleyforge/washington/george2.html

The first thing Washington aided the new country, was to stay united as a nation. We will find our pride in banding all units of government. He reads, “It is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that liberty which you so highly prize.” He describes how the respect and honor from other countries is established on how undivided and unified the country is. Our independence depends on the trust and commeradity that should be built up within ourselves. He is saying that our prosperity, our liberty, and our tranquility at home relies on the charity between the nation. Because outside and inside influences will try to rupture and tear apart the harmony, we need to watch for “jealous

The King did not want other people to enter the country because he felt like they would cause trouble. The colonist wanted the declaration of independence written because they felt that it would not only help them but it would help everyone. There were so many people who wanted changes to be made but they did not know how they would make the changes happen. The King had a right to make decisions about everything even over the judges. The colonist people did not like being harassed by the king constantly. The colonist had to pay taxes to pay for the war; no one asked them for their permission. The colonist wanted to have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce and they wanted to do all things that an independent state had the right to do. The colonist felt like the British had jurisdiction over them. The colonist did not have control over anything. The colonist wanted to live the way that they wanted to live” (p.

Due to the fact that the people in America wanted to split from Great Britain, it demonstrated that they wanted freedom and democracy. With what Washington did, it contradicted with the whole idea of freedom and conflicted the purpose of the Revolutionary War. His action was not favored by the people of America. What happened to him was similar to Louis XVI, the last French king, during the French Revolution. The people of America overthrew the the monarchy with the help of the government and the military. He was executed for treason at the place where now is The White House. This was why The White House was built, to commemorate the victory of American people gaining their

Then he was asked to go to another Constitutional Convention to help with a new constitution.  Washington didn’t really want to have any major role in the new government of the free colonies.   He could have easily used the victory against the British to give himself a lot of power, but he really wasn’t interested in individual power.  

Washington's significance cannot be overstated. He led the Continental Army to victory over the British. He believed in a strong federal government which greatly influenced the nation during his eight years in office. He did not allow others to trap him as royalty. He worked on the principle of merit. His warning against foreign entanglements was heeded by future presidents. By declining a third term, he set up the precedent of a two-term limit.

Washington had many tough decisions in his life that pulled him in every direction and called for him to think every decision through. One of these decisions, and probably the one that was on his mind the most, was the idea of the emancipation of slavery. As it is stated on page 164, Washington told his manager, Lund Washington, that he wanted to abandon slave labor at Mount Vernon and replace it with hired workers. Eventually he began to lose profits so he debated selling his slaves. His heart would not allow for him to split up families, so he was forced to deal with the consequences of using hired laborers.

Whenever I read the story of Washington and the US founding fathers is going to be feeling endless, The United States since the two hundred years of history since the Revolutionary War, Washington was the only political leader in his lifetime to get national unity of worship and even deified. From what I understand the scope of world history, I would like to talk about some of my objective views about president George Washington. He is the only person who established a country but did not want to be a ‘king’. He has been able to understand the heart of "democracy", but I still can not understand why he has been able to rest assured that the liberal democracy foundation established by himself desperately entirely entrusted to another group who responsible for thinking of "scholars" were in the rear, if this is a lifelong pursuit of the dream, why he would prefer to "fall by the wayside." Not to mention the temptation right at your fingertips, this is what the mind and vision. Always thought that the history of inevitability, but for the history of the founding of the United States, I always feel it is a "blessing", not the "otherness", there is no follow-up to the US founding fathers wrote the constitution, there is no current US democracy. George Washington ---- The first president of the new United States whom was the unanimously elected President in first two national elections. He led American to win the independent war and then he attended the meeting

To begin with, the first major point that Washington covered was political parties. Washington is against political parties and believes that America should not get involved with them. At the beginning of this segment of his letter he states “the founding of them on geographical discriminations,” this quote explain how he believes that we are allowing political parties to divide us as a nation. Washington is trying to clarify that although we have different regions that required different things, we should focus on the country as a whole. Further on he states that political parties are apart of our human nature so it will be difficult to avoid them by writing, “this spirit, unfortunately, is inseparable

When that monarchy went against the colonists, and regarded them a part of the empire, this was not entirely how the colonist’s wished to identify themselves. America and its colonists wished to establish themselves as being independent from a monarchy and to have a say in how they were ruled. After the revolution was over, Washington went back to Mount Vernon to retire, or so he thought.

Washington won the American Revolutionary War gaining Independence from Great Britain in 1776. By 1783, the war’s came to an end and Washington was ready to go home and live a normal life on his plantation. Everyone including senior officers wanted to make him king, but Washington thought otherwise. The Constitutional Convention (meeting of all the states) came together in Philadelphia in 1787 to develop a Constitution for the American Government and Washington was chosen to be head of the assembly. The requirements called for a president and the delegates already knew the right man for the job. He did not want to go into office,
