THIS EVENT TAKES PLACE AT HILLSBOROUGH LIBRARY, 379 S. BRANCH ROAD, HILLSBOROUGH TOWNSHIP NJ 08844.
Author, Arthur S. Lefkowitz will talk about his book: “George Washington’s Indispensable Men: Alexander Hamilton, Tench Tilghman, and the Aides-de-Camp Who Helped Win American Independence.”
While history has immortalized George Washington, it has largely forgotten those who helped to propel him to greatness—the thirty-two men who served as his aides-de-camp during the Revolutionary War. Washington relied heavily on these men—among them a young Alexander Hamilton—for help in formulating policy and strategy.
“George Washington’s Indispensable Men” details the fascinating and sometimes tragic lives of these aides, providing a new and refreshing look at the American Revolution.

Presenter: Arthur S. Lefkowitz is known for tackling offbeat but interesting subjects that present a research challenge. All of his books deal with some aspect of the American Revolution and his unique subjects include the story of the American Turtle submarine; the 1775 Arnold Expedition; the wartime exploits of Aaron Burr and George Washington’s Revolutionary War aides-de-camp. His latest book is titled “George Washington’s Revenge”.
