George Washington's Indispensable Men

While history has immortalised George Washington, it has largely forgotten those who helped to propel him to such greatness - the 32 men who served as his aides-de-camp. This book asserts that Washington relied heavily on these men for help in formulating policy and strategy. His aides were definitely not just 'pen men', but real, behind-the-scenes advisors that potentially affected some of his greatest decisions.
