Summary/Abstract: George Washington, the first president of the new American country (1789-97), was highly respected when he was still alive, and after his death. The myth of the ideal leader and a generous man resulted from the need for a national hero, who various newcomers to this "divine land" might identify with, dreaming of a democratic country.
