It's alright! I listened to the audiobook version, so I can't speak to the references or source integration.
The author explicitly sets out to correct some of the deification of Washington, and she's mostly successful. Really effective myth-busting!
The most interesting thing to me was learning that congress waived postage fees for letters to George Washington in the time between when he was general and president, and to Martha Washington after he died. So interesting!
