George Washington’s Final Battle
The Epic Struggle to Build a Capital City and Nation
Watson regales readers with an extraordinarily detailed account of the debates that overshadowed all the other issues the fledgling nation faced as it came to realize Washington’s passion for creating a ‘great city,’ one that would unify the country and inspire all Americans. This is a must read for those interested in the founding era!

Escape!
The Story of the Confederacy’s Infamous Libby Prison and the Civil War’s Largest Jail Break
Robert Watson has done it again! His insightful and historically rich narrative brings to life the ingenuity of the prisoners in the “Confederate Bastille” who undertook one of the most remarkable and daring escapes this country has ever witnessed, the largest in US history and one that, sadly, has been long forgotten.
