Washington’s End begins where most biographies of George Washington leave off, with the first president exiting office after eight years and entering what would become the most bewildering stage of his life. Embittered by partisan criticism and eager to return to his farm, Washington assumed a role for which there was no precedent at a time when the kings across the ocean yielded their crowns only upon losing their heads. In a different sense, Washington would lose his head, too.
In this riveting read, bestselling author Jonathan Horn reveals that the quest to surrender power proved more difficult than Washington imagined and brought his life to an end he never expected. The statesman who had staked his legacy on withdrawing from public life would feud with his successors and find himself drawn back into military command. The patriarch who had dedicated his life to uniting his country would leave his name to a new capital city destined to become synonymous with political divisions.
A vivid story, immaculately researched and powerfully told through the eyes not only of Washington but also of his family members, friends, and foes, Washington’s End fills a crucial gap in our nation’s history and will forever change the way we view the name Washington.

“No other life forms know they are alive, and neither do they know they will die. This is our curse alone. Without this hex upon our heads, we would never have withdrawn as far as we have from the natural—so far and for such a time that it is a relief to say what we have been trying with our all not to say: We have long since been denizens of the natural world. Everywhere around us are natural habitats, but within us is the shiver of startling and dreadful things. Simply put: We are not from here. If we vanished tomorrow, no organism on this planet would miss us. Nothing in nature needs us.”
― Thomas Ligotti, The Conspiracy Against the Human Race

Are you also available for children’s parties, ap?
Good stuff, prof.

I once had a student who read one of Nietzsche’s books at the beginning of the semester. From that day on, and for the next 16 weeks, every single paper, discussion, email, comment, and thought process was a quote or paraphrase from that book, whether it had anything to do with anything or not. It was like a teenage boy discovering female anatomy for the first time. I didn’t begrudge that student then, and I don’t begrudge apnea now, though after a while, understandably, no one wanted to speak to the student anymore.

Kids are impressionable, and certain writers - especially Ricœur’s “masters of suspicion” - can seem to younger folks to give the key to everything. Which is heady stuff. For approximately 16 weeks, or so. But it sure does wear. Particularly when one encounters a middle-aged Freudo-Marxist, who won’t change his mind & won’t change the subject. (Young at heart?!)
Empty, contradictory nihilism is an adolescent posture (Nothing matters! Who cares! Nobody loves me!) - it’s not even a mode of thought. If nothing can matter or make any difference, why bother even going to the trouble of asserting it? It’s a fatuous position. Why not wake from that juvenile slumber?

OK, but is it a good book?
