I've decided I'm not familiar enough with U.S. presidential history, so I want to read a biography on every president. Why not, right? Go big or go home. ;)

However, I'm actually having trouble finding a decent George Washington biography. There seem to be only 2 or 3, and their either reviewed as inaccurate (according to Amazon) or 900+ pages ... and that would be biting off a bit more than I can chew.

Anyone have any suggestions for a good biography on George Washington?
