Crowds cheering, cannons booming, and trumpets blaring—George Washington’s trip to his New York City inauguration was less commute, more victory parade. From Virginia to NYC, fans turned out in full force—boat flotillas, chants, and all—essentially giving the nation’s first president a week-long standing ovation. This lively retelling by David A. Adler, with detailed illustrations, brings the journey (and early New York) to life.
