Travels With George: In Search of Washington and His Legacy by Nathaniel Philbrick. The author retraces the route that Washingto took at the beginning of his presidency to traverse the original 13 states, test the attitude of the country and promote his federalists ideas. Interesting travelogue and comparisons of Washington's time and now, seeing what is still the same, which is more than you would think, but of course what has changed.
