That was beautiful!! The most patriotic poem I've ever heard. The Battle of Trenton was a short, but decisive battle that swung in Washington's favor, boosted morale, and kept the Revolution alive.
Love this. Such an important night in US history! Well done Mount Vernon.
I wish every one at ( George Washington's Mount Vernon ) A very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year 2021 .
Thank you! Bravo! Merry Christmas!
What a great rendition to the popular story. I have to say though. I like this one much better!!
This is amazing
Amazing and touching.
This was awesome!
I got a deluxe edition set of the complete 5 volume biography of George Washington by Washington Irving, for Christmas. Probably the best book about George Washington ever made. It’s a shame it’s not more widely known about.

Irving's biography is certainly one of the best biographies of the 19th century. We retain a set in our in the Washington Library at Mount Vernon. You can learn more about the creation of the biography on our Digtial Encyclopedia: www.mountvernon.org/library/digitalhistory/digital-encyclopedia/article/washington-irving/
I'm listening 'To Try Men's Souls', by Newt Gingrich in my car. How appropriate to watch this video. Great job!
I'm in love. Merry Christmas!
Love that he named the Mass. soldiers. Made it seem very real. Loved it.
Absolutely priceless! ❤️🗽🇺🇸 More, more, we want more!
Beauty personified -
No mention of unsung hero Hector Heathcote who plugged the boat so it could cross the Delaware.
God bless these brave men. We need men like them today!
How did you get a recording of George Washington's voice?
