Line 45:
After completing his exhaustive studies of Lee, his generals, and the Confederate war effort, Freeman started work on a seven volume biography of George Washington. Applying the same approach of exhaustive research and writing narrative based on objective fact, Freeman completed the first two volumes, titled ''Young Washington'', in 1948. The following year, he retired from journalism in order to complete his monumental work on Washington.
''George Washington Volume 3: Planter and Patriot'' and ''George Washington Volume 4: Leader of the Revolution'' were published in 1951. The following year, he published ''George Washington Volume 5: Victory with the help of France'' (1952). Freeman completed work on ''George Washington Volume 6: Patriot and President'' just before he died; it was published after his death in 1954. The concluding book, ''George Washington Volume 7: First in Peace'', was written by Freeman's associates, [[John Alexander Carroll]] and [[Mary Wells Ashworth]], based on Freeman's original research and was published in 1957.<ref>[[#malone|Freeman, Malone, 1954]], pp. xi–xxxi</ref> Historian and George Washington biographer
