He had to be talked into every office he ever held, and then would not put any of them down until the work was done. Schmidt's life runs from the Virginia surveyor and the frontier war through the terrible winters of the Revolution to the presidency and the retirement he genuinely wanted. Written for young readers, and unusually clear about why the man mattered.
