George Washington was a warrior and a farmer and a leader. Was he also a reader? Kevin J. Hayes says "yes," in George Washington: A Life in Books.

In a 10-minute conversation with The Bookmonger, Hayes discusses what Washington liked to read, whether he felt intimidated around great minds such as Jefferson and Hamilton, and why nobody has written an intellectual biography of him.
