The story of how a fatherless young soldier full of personal ambition becomes a leader of men willing to sacrifice all for the common cause. How a once-loyal British subject rises to battle an empire in a liberty-or-death campaign to forge a new nation. And then how, at the zenith of his power, the victorious general voluntarily steps down, becoming what King George III would call “the greatest man in the world.”

Sent by the British to deliver an ultimatum, the inexperienced young officer learns a hard lesson about leadership when his failures in the field inadvertently kick off a world war.

As the American colonies make their final break, their newly minted commander-in-chief realizes he's been handed a nearly impossible task in fighting the most powerful armed force in the world with an undisciplined ragtag group of soldiers.

The Revolution has been won, but as warring nations attack America's borders and uprisings threaten from within, Washington builds the new United States up with his bare hands while enduring treachery and personal attacks.
