Thoughts so far:
Washington’s mother sounds like a nightmare. Poor guy.
Also I never knew he had romantic feelings for a married woman while engaged to Martha. And to think Martha knew of these feelings and events and still stood by him and the two later on because really really good friends and spouses. (I won’t say lovers because apparently Washington didn’t believe in love.

Martha Washington is my hero. What a good wife and friend and role model.
I might try to find a biography on her alone next. She’s wonderful.
