Publishers Weekly, 9/16/13 [A] fast-paced chronicle of Washington's presidency." Washington Times , 11/13/13 [A] thoroughly researched and delightfully written book…Adds a much-needed new dimension to the Washington portrait…A real thriller of a tale that Mr. Unger has told with skill and authority." New York Journal of Books, 10/29/13 With #145;Mr. President' Harlow Giles Unger gives our precious American history the backbone it deserves and reveals more of Washington the man than Washington the demigod…Mr. Unger has the ability to not let his scholarship weigh down his story. History can be yawn inducing, but Mr. Unger puts his arm around us as if he is a travel companion telling a story—our story—with the pacing of a solid novel…Mr. Unger has objectively stripped away the mythological haze surrounding one of our most important founding fathers." San Francisco Book Review/Sacramento Book Review, 11/11/13 Mr. President explores both the birth of our nation's government and Washington's continual influence over the role of the president in domestic and foreign affairs, offering some truly enlightening insight into the earliest days of the U.S. government…Washington's political savvy and foresight have never seemed more impressive than they do in Unger's hands…As eye-opening as it is fascinating." InfoDad.com, 11/14/13 Unger's book is essentially a tracing of the roots of what we now call the #145;imperial presidency,' which most people believe to be a purely modern phenomenon—attributed by many to Franklin D. Roosevelt, for example. But Unger convincingly argues that this is not so: the seizing and exercise of powers not given to the president by the Constitution dates back all the way to the nation's first chief executive… It is genuinely fascinating to follow Unger's tracing of so many supposedly modern #145;presidential excesses' to the nation's first president: this book really does shine a new light on social and political conflicts that continue to this day." The Heartland Institute (Somewhat Reasonable blog), 11/2/13 [An] excellent book." Roanoke Times , 12/1/13 Unger leaves the reader with the understanding that the United States has benefited—perhaps even survived—because George Washington set the standard for performance and leadership."
