A few weeks ago, Nick recommended a biography of George Washington, but didn't state an author, so I just listed the most acclaimed one by Ron Chernow.
In his interview with Jack Neel, he specifically recommended the George Washington biography written by Henry Cabot Lodge, so I will add that one to the spreadsheet on the next update.
