I’ve read David McCullough’s other books on Presidents, and they’re so good I expect his 1776 treats George Washington with similar depth.
David McCullough: George Washington, Commander in Chief https://youtu.be/jn9QEQqDIW4
1776 is mainly about the events of that year, leading up to the winter in Valley Forge. I highly recommend it. It talks about several times when the continental army was stuck and about to be wiped out, and "divine providence" steps in and provides a way out. Washington saw those opportunities and took advantage of them, and saved the army.
