Description
"George-isms" (also known as "The 110 Rules of Civility and Decent Behaviour)" is a text that George Washington wrote down when he was fourteen years old and used as a touchstone all his life. Now, George Washington's one-hundred-ten rules are reprinted and handily "translated" into modern language that any young reader can understand.
As a moral compass; as a glimpse of history; or as a peek into the mind of our Founding Father, "George-isms" is a book that no young American should be without.
