        One of the most important moments in US history. Also, the reason I chose it for my new book cover.

        Right here in Annapolis, Maryland which at the time was serving as the capital of the fledgling nation. One of the most significant and symbolic acts in our early history.

        Washington knew how to yield power and, how to surrender it at the right time. This example set by him made America unique then and now.

        Most important day in USA history. The King didn’t think he was relinquish power. First general to do so. Should be a National holiday for all democratic nations
