George Washington: Farmer is a book written by Paul Leland Haworth that provides a comprehensive account of the life and agricultural practices of the first President of the United States, George Washington. The book explores Washington’s early years as a farmer, his experiences in the military, and his eventual return to agriculture after his presidency. Haworth delves into the various crops and livestock that Washington raised on his farms, including wheat, corn, tobacco, and sheep. The author also discusses Washington’s innovative farming techniques, such as crop rotation and soil conservation, which helped him to achieve great success as a farmer. Throughout the book, Haworth provides detailed descriptions of Washington’s daily life on the farm, his interactions with his workers, and his efforts to improve the agricultural industry in America. With its engaging narrative and in-depth analysis, George Washington: Farmer offers readers a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of America’s most iconic figures and his contributions to the field of agriculture.His attention to this last matter was most particular. Often when away from home he would have a record kept and on his return would incorporate it into his book. Exactly what advantages he expected to derive therefrom are not apparent, though I presume that he hoped to draw conclusions as to the best time for planting crops. In reading it I was many times reminded of a Cleveland octogenarian who for fifty-seven years kept a record twice a day of the thermometer and barometer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
