George Washington Started a World War (By Accident)

Описание: The cherry tree story is a lie. George Washington never said "I cannot tell a lie."

That story was invented in 1800 to sell books. But the real story? It's better.

At 22, Washington accidentally started a world war. At 44, he lost more battles than he won as Commander-in-Chief. His own generals plotted against him. His army nearly dissolved at Valley Forge. He signed a confession to war crimes.

George Washington was America's most spectacular failure.

So how did he become the father of a nation?
