What is the main conflict in Washington: A Life by Ron Chernow?

Washington: A Life is a comprehensive biography of George Washington. Ron Chernow, the author, has attempted to tell George Washington's complete and complicated life story in a remarkable single volume. Although many others have attempted to tell the story of Washington in the past, it has proved impossible to tell everything about the man in a single book. In Washington: A Life, Chernow does a beautiful job telling Washington's story with beautiful narration, close attention to detail, and a simplicity that allows him to successfully do it in one volume.
